First Use Walkthrough
Congratulations on installing Rephlo! Let's execute your first AI command to see it in action. We will perform a simple Text Summarization task.
Prerequisites: Ensure Rephlo is running (check the system tray).
Step 1: Prepare Some Text
Open Notepad, a web browser, or any text editor. Type or paste a paragraph of text. For example:
"The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. This sentence uses every letter of the alphabet and is commonly used for touch-typing practice. Foxes are known for their cleverness, while dogs are known for loyalty."
Step 2: Select the Text
Highlight the text you just wrote using your mouse or keyboard.
Step 3: Trigger Rephlo
There are two ways to activate Rephlo on the selected text:
- Option A (Hotkeys): Press the default global hotkey (
Ctrl+Shift+Alt+C). - Option B (Tray): Left-click the Rephlo icon in the system tray.
An overlay or window should appear, showing your selected text is "Active".
