Hans,

I was wondering if it would be possible to add some messages that [text] would use to append its buffer? I would think things similar to what a message box already understands, things like 'add', 'add2', 'addsemi', 'addcomma', 'adddollar', and 'adddollarsym'.

Or is there something already in place?
