I have also tried it both ways. AutoText New works for words or
phrases for which you do not want to create a new paragraph. AutoText
New (Text only) works best for when you do want a new paragraph after
your entry as in most of the entries under Standard.
Actually this seems more like an undocumented feature. We just
need to be aware of when to use which one. There are times when we
want to create a new paragraph afterwards, and there are times when
we do not.
