Topic: Tag Alias: hermaphrodite/female -> herm/female

Aliasing hermaphrodite/female → herm/female
Link to alias

Reason:

I have a tendency to type out the full word, and as a result, I'll end up typing the former, when we use the latter. There may be others like me who use hermaphrodite instead of herm, so I think this is a valid alias.

Definitely +1 this alias. It's a time-saver to write an abbreviated form than the whole thing, such as fnaf and mlp.

Approved

h/f, d/m, mh/f, a/i ;)

Try to memorize all the abbreviated tag names, it will make the tagging experience a lot easier. Anyone coming up with other useful (but applicable and logical) abbreviations for popular tags would be nice too.

e-stim = electrostimulation
simple bg = simple background
threading = all the way through

etc.

Yeah, those would be useful.
Though I highly recommend using macro software for heavy-duty tagging.

I use AutoHotkey, with one to three letter shortcuts for common tags. It's a massive timesaver. Especially for hard-to-spell tags such as heterochromia and onomatopoeia .

It's a time saver for those who are accustomed to TXTing, perhaps, but I'm more of an essay writer than a texter.

I checked it out. In the meantime figuring out how all that works, I'd have 50000000000 tag edits by hand instead already .-.

It's not that complicated.
The scripts are stored as plain text (.ahk filetype), and executed directly from those files.

Basic script looks like this (snippet from mine):

::<key sequence>:: <output>
For instance, I type 'lbv' and it automatically replaces that by ' looking_back looking_at_viewer rear_view '. Which is pretty handy.

I did something similar with text replacement when I had an iPad.
