::you::
Send you `
SoundPlay *-1
Return

I am currently using the above code, but I don't fully understand what's going on.
I want to treat different occurrences of "you" in different ways.

For example, if I enter "You" I don't want this to be recognized as a Hotstring (this currently gets changed to lower case "you").

If I enter "you're", I don't want this to be recognized as a Hotstring either (this gets executed when I enter the asterisk, or a quote mark as I type the string..."you").

Only when the value of the Hotstring is "you" (followed by a space) do I want the Hotstring to be recognized (executed).

Can someone explain?
Thanks...

Code:

#SingleInstance, Force
#Persistent
#NoEnv

#Hotstring EndChars  `  ; Sets only allowable end character to space

:c:you::                ; Makes "you" case sensitive
{
    Send you `
    SoundPlay *-1
}
