TextExpander 2.1 Adds Single Character Abbreviations, Improved
Performance for Fast Typists

San Francisco, CA -- April 22, 2008 -- SmileOnMyMac has released
TextExpander 2.1, an update to its customizable typing shortcut tool
for Mac OS X. With TextExpander, users can define abbreviations for
frequently-used text strings and images, also known as snippets. When
an abbreviation is typed, it expands automatically to the full
snippet.

TextExpander now allows single character abbreviations. The update
improves performance and reliability for fast typists and preserves
format when creating snippets from a selection or the Clipboard.
Several other improvements and minor bug fixes have been made as well.

A 30-day fully-functioning demo of TextExpander can be downloaded at
http://www.smileonmymac.com/textexpander/download.html. The price is
$29.95. A Family Pack license is available for $44.95, which covers up
to five computers in one household. Mac OS X 10.4 or higher is
required. TextExpander 2.1 is a free update for registered users of
TextExpander 1.x and 2.x.
