694 SmileOnMyMac has released TextExpander 2.0.5, an update to its customizable typing shortcut tool for Mac OS X. With TextExpander, users can define abbreviations for frequently-used text strings and images, also known as snippets. When an abbreviation is typed, it expands automatically to the full snippet. This update corrects a problem with the Dvorak keyboard layout, as well as bugs in registration and program launch.
