Microsoft Word
AutoFormat
What AutoFormat does:
Makes Internet addresses and email addresses into hyperlinks when you press enter
Replaces 2 hyphens (--) with a solid dash
Creates a numbered list after you type a number followed by a period, a space and text then hit enter
After a sentence and period, capitalizes the first word of the next sentence
When you start an outline, it automatically gives the next numbers/letters and sets the spacing -- it also re-numbers when you insert a line
Replaces ordinals (1st, 2nd) with superscript
