Here is how such a text expansion looks like in Typinator: I could create a text expansion that would expand Thank you. Since Typinator supports fuzzy searching, I can just include parts of words that are included somewhere in my expanded string and that string will surface to the top of my results. Expanding long phrases is pretty sweet and does save a lot of time. Both of these words are 12 characters each. That is I need 12 keystrokes to type them out every time I use them. Well one thing I started doing is I started indexing both all the various phrases I type and long words like this. I also always add a space to each expansion since usually a word is followed by a space and then another word. In Typinator you can create Sets to give a theme to your text expansion. For example the expansions I did for Fantastical app were put in the set Fantastical. And these word expansions, I put in a set I called Words. And here is how that set looks for me:Īnd they can include more complex things like moving the mouse caret to any place I want, include clipboards and more. To make all this work however, you need two very close by to you hotkeys. One for opening quick search and one for making a text expansion snippet from selected text. You can assign these hotkeys in the settings of this app. I will write an article on how you can do that soon.Īnd just like that, I have changed how I think about writing.įor me, I assign them to a hotkey and then call from Karabiner so opening up quick search becomes pressing s + o and making snippets from selected text is f + d for me where f is my Karabiner made modifier key.

Just search for certain words in your snippets. In this way, you do not even need to remember abbreviations for all your snippets. Set up a hotkey for invoking the Quick Search, then type one or two words to find the desired items. As long as your computer has enough storage capacity to store your snippets, Typinator can handle them all.Īnd, yes, Typinator has a “Quick Search” feature for quickly finding snippets by keywords in the abbreviation and/or snippet. Typically, this takes not more than a few microseconds per keystroke, no matter how many snippets you have.Īs far as the size of the snippets is concerned: Typinator does not care whether a snippet contains is a single word, a line, a paragraph or a chapter of a book. Typinator uses sophisticated techniques to quickly identify abbreviations as you type along. Typinator handles that many snippets with ease. No, this is not a typo: This really is “more than half a million”. We even have customers with 500,000+ items (for example, product codes and description).
