Hi,

Nice small package - these are my 2 cents on it :)

Using espanso globally, i encounter some unwanted text expansions triggered, which are usually triggered by ":a". As espanso intercepts this sequence even in a middle of a word, it happens when using a gmail filter which i write "label:a-faire" (TODO label). This also happens when using search functions in text editors, especially when editing CSS, or language translations.

I'm not sure this happens a lot for other users, however these are the tweaks i am experimenting to avoid this issue :

• use " :" instead of ":" (with a leading space) : i like the way it doesn't really change the trigger, while mitigating the false replacement issue for several use cases.
• use "::" instead of ":" : this is a more "explicit" method, but still very quick with doubling. I'm still wondering if it would match more or less false positive than the other option...

When using leading space, it may be useful to also add a leading space in the replacement text so the space actually remains after replacement.

Package users can update their settings file pretty easily using search/replace, or providing an alternative package with other triggers might be a nice option too.

Sincerely

It said on the page to suggest any tags we could need, the following came up for me:
::p for <p></p>
::ul for

<ul>
  <li></li>
</ul>

::li for <li></li>
::a2 for <a href="{{clipboard}}" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">$|$</a> (mainly for the target and the rel).
Thanks for the great tool!

Hi,

Most of the tags injected are, but without "<" and ">" :/
Very few are expanded correctly ...

Can u fix that?
Rgds,

The paragraph tag is often used when coding HTML files.
We should provide it with the package
