[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.   define a hotstring in autokey
2.   issue the hotkey 
3.   is not working for me since more than 6 month

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I would like to see the expanded text
There is no expansion
Only the type abbreviation is erased

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
autokey-common.noarch                  0.90.4-4.fc20                   @fedora  
autokey-qt.noarch                      0.90.4-4.fc20                   @fedora  
system: Fedora release 20

Please provide any additional information below.
Works well  under ubuntu 13.10.
Also tested with Fedora20: autokey-gtk.noarch     0.90.4-4.fc20 : not working

show log view in autokey window reveals:

Error in X event  loop thread
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/autokey/interfacxe.py "
line 116 in __eventLoop method(*args)  

additionally:
when I save the log, the errors ( red in autokey log window) are not in the 
saved log!!!
this is strange!

just to correct my wording:
hotstring == abbreviation
2. issue the hotkey means:  type the abbreviation ( including the trigger )

To add to this, for multi-line expansions, the number of lines is added to the 
document in place of the abbreviation, but the text on each line is missing.

An example is a 3 line address.. adr<enter> yields 3 blank lines.

FYI, I just resolved this in my instance by installing libindicator-gtk3.  
Seems it's a missing dependency in the RPM spec file.

Close AutoKey
sudo yum -y install libappindicator-gtk3
Launch AutoKey
