Keyboard shortcuts

[jelbaz]

Hey guys,

I was wondering if it is at all possible to change the characters on my keyboard. I use the greek letters alpha (α) and beta (β) a lot and I have to change my keyboard to greek every time I want to use those letters. Is it possible to create a keyboard shortcut for those letters (i.e. if I pressed Option+a it would type a greek alpha)?

Not sure if you can do that with the Keyboard > Text replacement option or not (System Preferences > Keyboard > Text tab).

I use TextExpander and it handles that as a text replacement/expansion without issue.
