Abbreviations *are* the cat's pajamas. Definitely a great feature to have.
My double comma shortcut is working correctly.
Unfortunately abbreviations are notoriously difficult to set up.
Two settings need to be present in your myLeoSettings.py under your
@settings node:
@bool enable-abbreviations = True
@bool scripting-abbreviations = True
In addition you need a "@data abbreviations" node (this can be found in
leo\config\exampleSettings.leo) under your @settings node which contains :
# special case, causes core to select next place holder for editing
,,={|{x='__NEXT_PLACEHOLDER'}|}
And for the funner more advanced abbreviations you need "@data
abbreviations-subst-env" from leoSettings.leo under your @settings node.
If ensuring you have those in place doesn't work we need to get Terry
involved, but hopefully it shouldn't come to that.
