Creating an AutoHotkey entry that ends in a colon

Question

I have a weird typo that I keep making over and over, and instead of actually working on my typing skills, I want to edit my AutoHotkey script to compensate for this. sometimes when I type the capital I I hit the : button and type "I:" and I want AHK to replace that string with just the letter I. I already have a similar Hotkey ::custoemr::customer But since the string uses a colon, I am having difficulty getting it to do what I want. Any I:deas? (See?)

Accepted Answer

Yes! It is a work around, but it works...

```
#Hotstring EndChars :
:?O:I::I
```

Anything below the line `#Hotstring EndChars :` will use the : as EndCharacter.
