Variables/Tokens in messages

I'm making a template and want to have different variables for words, like "I have to go" and "I am going"... so the {have to go} and {am going} randomly interchange. I'm sure this is simple, but can't seem to find what I'm looking for. Thanks.

how are these variables supposed to work?

If you want to quickly ins ert some text, define a quick template for it. Se t the text for the template, and a short handle for it. Then when you type the handle and press CTRL+SPACE, it will be replaced by the text.

To include text conditionally, see help about IF / IFCASE / IFN macros. These work like
IF:condition:insert this text if condition is true:insert this text if condition is false

Is there a simpler way? It's only on one template and doesn't have to be anything specific to a statement. For example:

Hello there, how are you? -> send to mail 1
Hi there, how are you? -> sent to mail 2
etc

At random. Like tokens, in pseudo code:
<t>Hello|Hi</t> there, how are you?

Thanks.

Use a cookie file. One item per line (although random being what it is, it may call the same line more than once or twice in a row), as many lines as you want

This is usually used for tag lines in signatures and is an EXTREMELY POWERFUL feature.

Make the file and add the 2 items that you want for now. Then, in your template replace the text with
"%COOKIE="C:\path to the cookie file"

Then go read about it in the help file after it starts to dawn on you what you can do with this  8)
