Greetings,

This topic is not totally OT because it affects only NE X.

Please reply off-list if you have noticed this problem.

I first used TypeIt4Me many years ago and came back to it when the OS X version was 
issued. For those who do not use it, TypeIt4Me types small phrases to expand a 
shortcut. Its advantage is that it works across most applications.

My problem is simple:
Often when I type a shortcut, the correct expansion replaces it.

For example, if I type *.rgx* [without the *s] then I expect to get a Signature :

Then, all of a sudden and it seems to be only when I am typing a message in NE Quick 
Message windows and use copy-and-paste of a section of that message, the expected 
TypeIt4Me expansion is replaced by the previously copied text.

I have been in constant touch with the author, Ricardo Ettore, but he cannot test this 
as he does not use NEX.

He explained that what happens is that when I copy some text to the Clipboard and 
paste it, then this text is retained in the Clipboard until overwritten.

Then, when I type a shortcut, TypeIt4Me saves the contents of the clipboard somewhere, 
overwrites the shortcut with the expanded shortcut and then restores the old clipboard 
contents.

When this sequence is used in NEX, more often than not the original contents of the 
clipboard replace the shortcut rather than the expected expansion.

I would like to discuss this problem with any other users of TypeIt4Me off-list unless 
members feel it is of general interest.

There are other happenings in NEX which I cannot describe properly by mail; I need to 
wave my hands around to make things clear. But, it involves bits of text from one part 
of a message being automatically typed elsewhere. Totally irrational.
