    I am looking for a way to take a txt file with 10-20 blocks of text, assign them a keyboard shortcut, then allow the user to paste them into another application window using the keyboard shortcut. In other words, I’d like ot create a dictionary-type file of template responses and allow to user to paste these using a shortcut (ctrl-T perhaps would paste the text “Thank you for contacting us today!” Is there a feature or plugin of NPP that will allow for this? Or maybe a better solution altogether?

    Thank you,
    -Bob

      Sounds suspiciously like one of the “snippets” type plugins…
