### Expaido - A simple text expansion tool in Caido



Expaido is a simple text expansion tool that allows you to define a trigger character and a value that will be expanded when the trigger character is typed. For example, if you set the trigger character to `~` and define the value of `ex` as `example`, typing `~ex` will expand to `example`. This is useful for storing IDs, cookies, auth token, XSRF tokens, etc that you may need to input often.

### Usage

There are multiple ways to add an Entry to Expaido:

- The `Add Entry` button in the `Expaido` side menu page
- The `Add Expaido Entry` Command Pallete command (press CTRL-K to access) **after selecting some text**.
- The right-click menu -> `Add Expaido Entry` **after selecting some text** (COMING SOON)

After defining an entry, you can use the entry by typing your trigger character (defaults to `~`) plus any of your defined triggers. To remove your entry, simply click the `Remove` button from the table on the `Expaido` side-menu page.
