TextExpander 5 review: Typing shortcut utility makes you more productive by learning your habits

TextExpander (http://smilesoftware.com/TextExpander/index.html) is designed to save keystrokes. Instead of typing the same sequence again and again at full length, tap in a few characters and the app automatically drops in your replacement in whatever software you’re using.</p><p>
Version 4 extended that to offer fill-in forms, so that entire messages could be partially automated, such as common replies. The latest release, TextExpander 5, adds suggestions, watching what you type to either remind you of a shortcut you’d already set or note a frequent pattern that could be replaced with one. It also expands sync, improves search, and adds previews. (This version requires OS X Yosemite.)</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/2931533/textexpander-5-review-typing-shortcut-utility-makes-you-more-productive-by-learning-your-habits.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
