Ergonis Software has announced a new HTML snippets set for Typinator, its highly acclaimed tool for auto-typing text system-wide across all Mac OS X applications.
The new HTML set provides over 100 abbreviations for elements of the HTML 4.01 standard. With this set installed in Typinator, you just type a short abbreviation and Typinator will insert the corresponding HTML code and place the insertion point appropriately.
“Regardless what tool they are using, most web designers are typing plain HTML code all the time, sometimes at least assisted by their HTML editor. And most guys who type plain HTML code are keyboard junkies, who want to move their hands off the keyboard only when absolutely necessary,” said Christoph Reichenberger, founder and CEO of Ergonis Software. “With the new HTML snippets set for Typinator, you can insert over 100 HTML elements without having to click through a list of templates. Just type a double less-than sign followed by the name of the desired HTML element and Typinator will insert the corresponding HTML code and place the insertion point appropriately. This will not only save you a lot of time and thousands of keystrokes but will also eliminate typing errors”.
Typinator is a powerful, yet elegantly simple solution that works across all applications to detect specific sequences of typed characters and to automatically replace them with text snippets, graphics, URLs, dates and special characters.
For business users, Typinator leads to a layer of operational consistency and productivity across heterogeneous applications. A standard customer service response, a signature image on an email, a clause in a contract – each of these can be inserted in any application with just a couple of keystrokes. For technical users, Typinator automates typing of code and the implementation of documentation standards.
Typinator requires Mac OS X version 10.4 or newer. It is fully compatible with Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard). Visit Ergonis Software’s website to learn more about Typinator and to download the new HTML set.
