Yes… It's a list with words that will be replaced with other words.
OpenOffice.org Writer looks in the list for every word you type. If the word is 
in the list, it will be replaced with the corresponding word. This is 
convenient for abbreviations and words that are often misspelled.

1. Click Options for autocorrection…
2. Click the Replace tab if it's not already selected.
3. Select your language or [All] (selecting [All] makes your abbreviations work 
for all languages, which makes sense in this case).
4. You have two fields for text: ”Replace” and ”with”. Enter the word you want 
to replace in the ”replace” field, let's say ”cl”.
5. In the ”with” field, now enter ♣. If you don't know how to type it, copy it 
from here and paste it to the ”with” field.
6. Do step 4 and 5 for the rest of your symbols.
7. Click OK.
8. Try your new abbreviations out. In the above example, now type ”cl”
(without the quotes, of course) and then hit Enter or space. ”cl” will now 
automatically be replaced by ♣ (the clubs symbol).
