# Text clips
By using text clips, MarkMyWords offers a function for writing articles with repetitive text structures even faster.
You can create text clips yourself and insert them into a document at any time.
In addition, keywords can be defined for text clips which, together with the Tab key, can automatically insert the desired text clip.

Quoi de neuf dans la dernière version ?
# New:
- Illusion Format: This feature for the main editor can be activated in the MarkMyWords preferences under Editor > Highlight. This feature causes the most important and most frequently used markups to be displayed directly in the editor. This feature is available for all markup languages except HTML. Comprehensive information on this feature can be found in the MarkMyWords help.
- Syntax highlighting: Syntax highlighting has been completely reworked and replaces the old system. In addition to improved and extended recognition of markups, the new highlighting also works better with the set editor options so that the layout no longer gets out of shape.
# Bug fixes:
- Fixes a potential crash of the app when running MultiMarkdown if certain conditions are met
- Fixes a bug that caused MarkMyWords to crash when certain preference combinations related to line numbering were used
