I use it for some...

I use it for some of the more common names in my novel which have characters not defined in my keyboard like Jana?ek and Rosický. Which I can obtain by typing without accents in lower case. What I have noticed is if I make an error in typing (say “rodicky”), then I sometimes need to erase all the way back to the beginning for text expander to realize that I did want it to intervene. Except when I try to do it on purpose.
