There is no abbreviations plugin. Instead, there is an abbreviation
class in leoPy.leo, the node:
Code-->Core classes-->@thin leoEditCommands.py-->abbrevCommandsClass (test)
I'm not sure whether even a single person is using this class.
Looking at the code, that is, readAbbreviations, I see that the
read-abbrev-file command prompts for a fileName. Obviously, this is
going to be quite annoying to do every time you load Leo.
Again, looking at readAbbreviations, I see this:
f = open(fileName)
for x in f:
a, b = x.split('=')
b = b [:-1]
self.abbrevs [a] = b
So presumably each line of the form has the form:
name = expansion
For *years* I've wanted a better way to do
abbreviations/substitutions. The present code is a start, but is far
from good. Any improvements would be appreciated.
