Snippet Abbreviations

You should add support for optionally assigning an abbreviation to any saved item. Paste could then monitor the keyboard and when the user types an abbreviation, it would automatically paste the corresponding item into the current location. Thus, it would work similarly to apps like Keyboard Maestro, Rocket Typist, etc... Since Paste supports creating groups of snippets, it already includes most of the functionality of these apps. The only thing that's missing is a quick way to paste a snippet, without having to open the Paste drawer, search for the snippet, etc... Naturally, this would require some additional settings, such as: * When to paste (after the last character of the abbreviation, or after a specific character is typed) * An option to restore the original clipboard content after a specified amount of time has elapsed. * Ability to paste in multiple parts with a specified delay between each part. The user could separate the parts with a specified character sequence like %%: This is part 1%% This is part 2%% This is part 3
