Texter a text replacement program for windows and productivity

May 29, 2007

I bet you have to type the same thing over and over in electronic communication day on day.

Be it signing emails, typing your address or even whole email replies texter is really floating my boat at the moment.

It allows you to abbreviate things into a few keystrokes. So for example in any text entry interface I can type gladdr then enter and it replaces this will my full address.

Add this to the keyboard shortcuts that gmail provides and you are on fire with blazing productivity.

Another cool thing I read in the great prag book Everyday Scripting with Ruby is to devote time everyday to making yourself more efficient. Attempting to remove all the repetitive tasks as much a possible from your everyday workflow is doing wonders for what I can accomplish on a day to day basis.

I’ll post a review of Everyday Scripting with Ruby when I’ve finished it.
