// 2. Log out and log back in (or just restart any app where you'd like to use the shortcut)
// What: Keyboard shortcut to easily insert checkmarks. (Or whatever text you'd like to insert).
// By default option+v in MacOS inserts a square-root symbol: √
// I've often used option+v as a quick-and-dirty checkmark. This shortcut lets me get a real checkmark.
