@ -5,6 +5,22 @@ I created something so that I can always have multiple strings at my fingertips.
## Top-level overview
What it does is take an `ini` (based off [this](https://daviddaily.dev/david/d3k/src/branch/master/glovarsource)) and turn it into hotstrings that start with `$` automagically. The Key (left side of the `=`) is the hotstring, the Value (right side of the `=`) is what it gets replaced with.
### Example:
if your `ini` looks like this:
```ini
[Serial Numbers]
1=3329RW103JE
old=RWGISFJ400293
```
glovar.ahk would look like this:
```ahk
#SingleInstance force
:*:$1::3329RW103JE
:*:$old::RWGISFJ400293
```
### Why?
This way I'm not copying and pasting twenty different things, mixing up similar serial numbers or other information. It also doubles as a replacement to a WPF-based application the in-house IT created that generates ugly output and is a pain to use.
