You are correct. In fact, Commodore Basic had more of these shortcuts which allowed you to type in Basic commands really quickly. If you LISTed the code all shortcuts were changed to their correct command names. Kind of stenographic coding. Never saw anything like that later on with the 'modern' programming languages.. Maybe someone should bring this approach back :) Edit: found a list of the keyword abbreviations. More then I expected/remembered.

You can always use Emacs and YASnippet. Also, Eclipse has a good couple of extremely handy word expansions.
