Hope you can follow my gibberish and it's at all useful.
Going along the lines that the prof suggested in the information on the new features page I thought I'd experiment with the "do you..." form.
So, with some experimenting I tested this sentence:
do you quite need to dry the dishes with a rag?
But I wanted to be tricky and have a wildcard for both verbs ("need to" and "dry"). This didn't work out so well. Here's what I did:
Key: do you (adverb) (verb) (verb) * with
Response: Of course I (key1) (key2) (key3) (key4) with (postkey), it sounds like such fun.
Which didn't work. However the more simple (yet less flexible):
Key: do you (adverb) need to (verb) * with
Response: Of course I need to (key1) (key2) (key3) with (postkey), it sounds like such fun.
did work, yielding "Of course I need to rather dry the dishes with a rag, it sounds like such fun."
(also note "quite" was turned into a "rather" and is in the wrong place?)
Prof, is there a problem with having two verbs together like this, or is it just something I've done that I can't see?
Its all so encouraging though.
(sorry about the babble, but as an aside, I replaced "quite" with "really" in my question and got: "Of course I need to truly dry the dishes with a shred, it sounds like such fun." Is there a thesaurus at work here?)

Prof, with the script to autochange them, you'd have to determine which use (subj) is being used in...
IE
if there is a wildcard
if there is no wildcard
etc
which to switch it to, respectively

Just after I write that post I figure out something that works (maybe not always)
Key:do you (adverb) * (verb) * with
Respose: Of course I (key1) (key2) (key3) (key4) with (postkey), it sounds like such fun.
giving:"Of course I really need to dry the dishes with a rag, it sounds like such fun."
Anyway, back to my hole

Or simpler yet, as you may be getting too complex with it:
Keyphrase: do you * with
Response: Of course I (key1) with (postkey), it sounds like such fun.
More flexible, more simple.
Here's one I was trying last night. I'm going to split Keyphrase "i am" into two:
Keyphrase: "i am"
Response: Even the monkeys are (postkey)!
Keyphrase: "i am (adj)"
Response: "Really? They call me '(key1) Jack!'"
So you can do more with it. Clearly the second wouldnt work if someone said "I am a doctor". But it works well in the right circumstance, such as "I am silly!"
I started working on this last night, and realized how much easier this would be to do with the export/import working, so I'm working on that next.

Yay for export/import! Get that working, and I think it's time for me to break out my credit card for you again.
I think it's time for me to break out the export/import editor i made

A cho-a-who? Cake??? You're out of your tiny mind. Do you really think cake can fit through these little wires between us? All the icing would fall off! Get a grip, Mr S!
