Schmitz Smile has released [1]TextExpander 6.1.7, improving connection reliability for syncing snippets and banishing an unwanted leading linebreak that occurred when expanding some formatted snippets. The text-expansion utility also retains animation of GIFs after adding via drag and drop, and it allows delimiter macros to be added to script snippets. TextExpander 6 is available via a monthly or annual subscription, and Smile continues to offer [2]TextExpander 5 as a standalone app for $44.95 ([3]TidBITS members receive a 20 percent discount only on the purchase of version 5).
