I just use TypeIt4Me by Riccardo Ettore. Quote: What does TypeIt4Me do? Anytime you enter text in your Mac by typing it at the keyboard, TypeIt4Me can help you do it faster and more accurately. First you define a set of abbreviations and the full text entries that they represent, then you watch the Mac expand them on the fly even as you continue typing! Abbreviations can represent any text you like, such as: � a long, hard-to-type word like 'benzo-methyl-tricarbo-something-or-other'; � your name and address; � a standard end of letter salutation; � an entire paragraph of legal or medical text; � a short word that you often misspell (such as 'teh' instead of 'the'); � your email signature; � precooked phrases for on-line chatting; � HTML tags; � in short: just about anything you need to type often. To trigger the automatic typing of the text represented by an abbreviation you can either: � type the abbreviation or � select the abbreviation from TypeIt4Me's pop up menu. For example, when I type re TypeIt4Me comes up with Riccardo Ettore. (And, no, TypeIt4Me will not bother me when I type more or read or area, since it looks for the letters 're' as a separate word, i.e. preceded and followed by spaces or by the punctuation marks of your choice.)
