## Static Matches
### Single-line Expansions
```yml
- trigger: "hello"
replace: "world"
```
### Multi-line Expansions
```yml
- trigger: "hello"
replace: "line1\nline2"
```
## Dynamic Matches
### Using Variables
```yml
- trigger: "now"
replace: "It's {{mytime}}"
vars:
- name: mytime
type: date
params:
format: "%H:%M"
```
### Preconfigured Choices
```yml
- name: output
type: choice
params:
values:
- "Every moment is a fresh beginning."
- "Everything you can imagine is real."
- "Whatever you do, do it well."
```
### Run CLI Command
```yaml
- name: getip
type: shell
params:
cmd: "curl ifconfig.me"
shell: cmd
```
## Global Variables
### Declarations
```yml
global_vars:
- name: "global1"
type: "shell"
params:
cmd: "echo global var"
- name: "greet"
type: "echo"
params:
echo: "Hey"
```
### Usage
```yml
- trigger: ":hello"
replace: "{{greet}} Jon"
```
## Word Triggers
### Autocorrect Typos
```yml
- trigger: "ther"
replace: "there"
word: true
```
### Case Propagation
```yml
- trigger: "alh"
replace: "although"
propagate_case: true
word: true
```
- If you write `alh`, the match will be expanded to `although`.
- If you write `Alh`, the match will be expanded to `Although`.
- If you write `ALH`, the match will be expanded to `ALTHOUGH`.
## Cursor Hints
Insert `$|$` where you want the cursor to be positioned. Limited to one cursor hint.
```yml
- trigger: ":div"
replace: "<div>$|$</div>"
```
## Match Disambiguation
Takes all matches with the same trigger and displays a dialog to let you choose.
```yml
- trigger: ":quote"
replace: "Every moment is a fresh beginning."
- trigger: ":quote"
replace: "Everything you can imagine is real."
- trigger: ":quote"
replace: "Whatever you do, do it well."
```
