Shorthands stop being detected #167

Hello
I have been using Lintalist for a week or so now. It is pretty reliable application, but sometimes it just stops working. I use mostly shorthands for text expansion, but whatever reason every now and then the application stops detecting shorthands. I can still evoke the application with Caps Lock and add snippets in this way. Not sure if this is known problem. I was not able to find the possible cause for this myself. Not sure if there is any debug interface.

Thanks for the feedback - other users have reported this and I've been working on a change in Lintalist to help resolve it[1]

I don't experience the issue myself with the any of the current releases, but the irony is that as soon as I start using the "fix" method (#144) I experience it myself - so while it seems to fix it for some users, it introduces a new "bug" for me - so I have some work to do :)

[1] #144 (development branch which seems to resolve it for some users)
and #145

Thanks for a quick response. Great! I have managed to get it working and will give it a test through several coming days.
Another question - is it possible to make shorthands case sensitive or it is not likely to work with current implementation?
Thanks again for your great effort to support it!

Once I have it fully working (that is to say for myself) I can add such new options to the program as native AutoHotkey hotstrings indeed support case sensitive hotstrings and omitting end characters for example (so need to type space or tab)

The detection of the hotstrings appears efficient with this new experimental branch in my use, except one particular case. It seems that "shorthands" are missed, if used after "keyboard shortcut".
