Could have been great...but a couple bugs severely hurt the experience. This addon is all about saving small amounts of time, a few seconds at most, so when it doesn't work it's defeating its entire purpose. Too many times I type my shortcut and hit space...and it doesn't work. I backspace and hit space again...doesn't work again. Try for a 3rd time...FINALLY it works. In the end I would have saved more time if I had simply typed out the whole word I was trying to shortcut.

Another issue is that sometimes the addon will randomly jump to a new line after doing a shortcut. So between that and simply failing altogether using this addon is actually rather stressful...I never know if it will work correctly or not and this failure rate is quite high...I'd say at least 5%.

So all in all the idea is really great, and the addon works for the most part which is why I will keep using it, but the 5% of the time where it fails me is really REALLY annoying.

Instead of doing what it was supposed to do, it turned my whole email into gibberish.

It was making troubles with original text. Delating parts of sentences...

EDIT: Sadly, this extension no longer works.

Without this extension, I would have had to switch to Chrome (gak!). Easy to add new abbreviations and easy to use them, without some awkward combo-key construct. Thank you!!!

job wel done!! +++
