Version IV will not have auto-replace as we have known it in the past. The
matter is most unfortunately closed. We tried to negotiate a different solution
with the patent holder, but were unable to do so.
There ARE some good points to all this... for instance, you can now do
replacements sometimes and not others. I can use MA to be the abbreviation for
Massachusetts, or I can auto-replace it to be "mandibular aggravation," if I
want. Or "oh" could be an expression of surprise, a state abbreviation, or
"obligatory handshake," on occasion.
