# What is keyboard shortcut combination for ResourceFunction?

I have seen in some notebooks that functions called with ResourceFunction["PairwiseScatterPlot"] appear with a red set of square brackets enclosing a red filled square. It would be great to know the shortcut instead of having to type out ResourceFunction every time. Any help is appreciated.

• I don't think there is one. This is a display form, not a form one types in manually. Dec 2 '20 at 13:14
• Perhaps ResourceFunctionInput over at the function repository will do what you are asking: resources.wolframcloud.com/FunctionRepository/resources/… Dec 2 '20 at 14:27
• (+1) Mostly for the pointing out PairwiseScatterPlot. Dec 2 '20 at 14:28
• @JoshuaSchrier that’s it for sure, you should post it as an answer so that OP can accept it! Dec 9 '20 at 11:52

ResourceFunction["ResourceFunctionInput"]["InstallAlias"]
permanently adds an interactive input for ResourceFunction symbols as input alias esc-rfi-esc that allows for inline creation of ResourceFunction symbols. There are also other options for adding menu bar items and other ways to use this functionality.
• Not sure why but on my machine (Ubuntu 18.08 with MMA 12.0) this fails with the message SystemPacletUninstall::shdw: Symbol PacletUninstall appears in multiple contexts {System, PacletManager}; definitions in context System may shadow or be shadowed by other definitions. Anyone having the same experience? Jan 18 '21 at 17:37
