Espanso Form Extension Shortcut

This package allows you to quickly create a new Espanso shortcut containing a list Form extension. Please see the example below.

Usage

Let's say you want to create a new Espanso shortcut that will allow you to choose between different options such as a list of colors that you frequently use in styling. Or you have a list of co-worker logins that you need to use but can't always remember off-hand. You can use the Form extension to quickly generate a shortcut template to give you a list of options to choose from.

Type :vblf (verbose list form) in your YAML code-editor and complete the information in the popup form. Once you click Submit a form trigger will be pasted in its place. Further edits, such as additional options, or changing the field type: to choice, can then be inserted.

Please see for a short video demo of an earlier version.
