Hi Katy:
Curious how you use TextExpander in your photography work? I am a photograher as well and can use some pointers on using TE. Thank You Jim

Hi, I’m Annette Price, a graphic designer in Minnesota and I used TextExpander to write this introduction, as I do with almost everything I write these days.

Welcome @PeterFunk!
Hi everyone,
I’m Mars, a FileMaker developer and consultant working for various clients in the Netherlands. I’ve been using TextExpander for quite some time now — and honestly, I can’t imagine working without it. Whenever it does not work (like in this browser text box right now: expanding is doubled …), a get a bit upset 
I use TextExpander across all my devices — iPad, iPhone, and several Macs. For everything I have to type more then 3 times I trying to find a good abbrevation to never type it again. Main use of TE is to fire standard code snippets into my development projects. I’ve even created a few micro-tools inside snippets using JavaScript. It keeps me wondering what other powerful things TextExpander can do that I haven’t discovered yet.
Looking forward to learning from all of you and sharing tips!
I am … … fat old white guy retired injineer who’s a poor old senior citizen on a fixed income. Been in IT since it was called “data processing” in the late 60’s. From my TE folders, I was using TE in 2018. It replaced a myriad of TXT files for collecting quotes. (A habit I picked up from my sainted mother.) I can’t tell you how many snippets I have now but I have over 50 folders of them (hint hint). I’ve used it when I was working as VP, Info Sec back on Wall Street when it was the place to do IT and big bucks I’ve been blogging at WORDPRESS since 2006 at “Reinke Faces Life”. I’ve self-published several “books” with LULU including my magus opus “CHURCH 10●19●62”, an alternative future history diverging off the Cuban Missie crisis which traumatized me. Laugh!
I hate retirement and blame it on the Social Security rules, age discrimination, and the Gooferment in general. I’m a little L libertarian that learned early in the 70’s at AT&T that pensions were an “illusion” and social security was a Ponzi scheme.
I was motivated to introduce myself because of a great message about some features that I’d use if TE had them.
FWIW (For What It’s worth), YMMV (Your Mileage May Vary!), FAIWWYPFI (Free Advice Is Worth What You Pay For It! ?zero?), PGPIRU (i.e.,“Promote the Guilty; Punish the Innocent; and Reward the Uninvolved.”) and TANSTAAFL (“There Ain’t No Such Thing As A Free Lunch” From Robert Heinlein’s classic)
<<An example of my favorite use of TE since most of my relatives, friends, and readers don’t like my INITIALISM without explanation. All are just plain text with an immediate expansion so I don’t even slwo down when I use them FWIW (For What It’s worth) >>
