What is call signs, but letter combinations, and a number in it.
Since people usually capitalize their call signs, I think, it will
work.  I already tried it.  I don't like to keep acronyms turned
on, because it reads to many things like a acronym, such as the
name of a directory since it is capitalized.  However, you can make
a macro to turn it on when you need it, and turn it back off when
you finished.  Now for people who think that macros are not
necessary, there is one example where they will come in handy.
That's why I wish vocal eyes could use macros to do such things
that are not as easy to do with one key stroke.  I guess if I were
going to change to vocal eyes, I would have to learn a macro system
that would work with it.
