Typinator - Preview

When Lee is at a client's office and anyone watches him type on his Mac, there is one feature that is guaranteed to be greeted with "Wow! How did you do that?" and that's text expansion. Today's video covers the application Lee uses for this: Typinator from Ergonis software. Using this application, you can key in a few characters that expand into something much larger. This can be something small, like a URL, or perhaps an email template or blocks of text. You can print the current date and time, calculate future or historic dates, as well as use variables to make calculations.

In this video, Lee gives you a walk-through of how to make the most of Typinator and wow your friends, family and colleagues.
