Copy Paste Date Question
« on: April 25, 2018, 02:26 AM »
I would to copy a date, e.g, 03/10/17, and paste it as March 10, 2017.  Can this be done with CHS?  If so, any tips would be appreciated.  Thanks in advance for any help with this.

Not possible using just CHS.  But you could write an external script (perl, python?) to do the replacement and then configuring CHS to call that script when you wanted.

This could also easily be done with a standalone AutoHotkey script or an AutoHotkey script that integrates into CHS (as mouser suggested).
