Hi All,
I've been defining functions to create shortcuts

(defun (hw) (progn
       (delete-fun) ; This is another function that deletes the actual
function name from the buffer
       (insert "Hello World"))

I invoke it as follows - (hw)C-X-e, this removes (hw) and replaces it with
Hello World.

the problem is that I have to type parenthesis. I explored abbreviations
but they cannot seem to be parameterized. Can someone please suggest an
alternative?

Regards,
Kashyap
