Abstract
A simplified method of storing and invoking standard phrases during text entry to an electronic computer allows a phrase to be recalled by typing an abbreviated phrase name preceded by a predetermined character string selected from characters of a standard typewriter keyboard, eliminating the interruption typing often incident to finding special function keys. The character string is selected to be unambiguously distinguishable from standard entered text.
