To add multiple commands for a gesture:

Open the Shorthand Command Editor by selecting Start > All Programs > Shorthand, or by tapping the Shorthand icon in the System Tray.
In the left pane, select an application and expand its contents (click ) to see the available gestures.
Select a gesture and expand its contents (click ) to see the assigned commands.
To add an additional command for the gesture, select the gesture, and then select the menu File > New Command.
From the drop-down menu (right half of window), select a command.

Select the new command, right-click, and then select Rename.
Tap in the new name.

For example, you can open a VPN client and send your user name and password using one gesture.
