First question why in the text expander section, I cannot execute a Command and configure a manual confirmation for it, but If I configure the text expander as send and go to automation and insert command code macro it will let me do so.

Questions two, when you are add an automation insert command code into a text expander, you have to specify a name, is this name have to be unique globally? can it be reused? Can I have 100 different text expanders allusing same name for a automation insert command code with different code inside? If this is not possible and all names should be unique, shouldnt the program tells us if there is a duplicate name and you have to choose a different name?

1) Manual confirmation option is only available in Send mode due to internal limitations. We'll check if it would be possible to enable this.
2) It's global, you can reuse it, just copy the code variable name (like %CODE_MyCode%) to other phrases.

I noticed that you can create a code variable somewhere in fastkeys, and then create it again in another place with the same name, and the last code variable you created with the same name it overwrites all previous instances. Would it be possible to receive a warning that the code variable you are trying to use already exists, maybe ask you if you want to overwrite it ? Otherwise you might unkowingly overwrite code variables and cause fsastkeys to work unexpectedly
