Typinator detects specific sequences of typed characters and automatically replaces them with text snippets, graphics, URLs, dates and special characters saving you a lot of time, not only typing, but looking up information.

The new version brings along a set of HTML snippets that includes over 100 abbreviations for elements of the HTML 4.01 standard. Typinator 3.1 also improves compatibility with applications such as Coda, VMWare Fusion, Butler, and Zend Studio. 3.1 also has a redesigned (and optional) menu bar icon to better match the style of Apple’s menu extras.

The upgrade to Typinator 3.1 is free for anyone who purchased Typinator in the last 2 years. Typinator sells for EUR 19.99 and is also available in family packs.

Textpander to TextExpander– donationware no more

152823515 13bef45b51 m Textpander to TextExpander donationware no moreOne of my favorite bits of shareware, Textpander, has been purchased by SmileOnMyMac, it is now called TextExpander and is no longer donationware — in fact it costs USD$30.

It is worth that much?

There is no denying it is an extremely useful piece of software and comparing it to Typinator 1.2 and TypeIt4Me 3 (b24), it certainly has the more robust feature set. In case you don’t already use it, TextExpander saves you time by allowing you to configure it to type the current time for you when you type “ttime” or the date when you type “ddate” or almost any formatted text or simple image when you trigger it with a user-defined bit of text. Excellent for hand coding!! But USD$30!? I dunno… I’m gonna have to think about this.
