How to replace entered text with new text - Custom keyboard android?

Question

Suppose i am having shortcuts codes for templates like following,

##waf - Where are you from ? ##hoay - How old are you ? ##ibrn - I am busy right now.

I need to create a custom keyboard. In which, if i entered the short codes, it must be replace with the template . Is android Input methods api supporting this ?.

@PankajKumar he is working on a custom keyboard, not any text change listener — pskink, Aug 20 '14 at 08:44

I am talking about Customizing android keyboard dude. – Sujith Aug 20 '14 at 06:49
Won't you enter this keyboard input to a specific area like a texbox? Where will you enter this specific input? to your own application input areas or anywhere on device? – Mgnfcnt Aug 20 '14 at 08:47
