Espanso is a free, open source, cross platform text expander that functions system wide. It is really an incredible tool. I've used text expanders for years, but generally find they are bound to the browser through an extension or plugin. it is so nice to find one that is open source and cross platform, and I just had to share it with you.

Think you don't need a text expander?
Do you do any of these?
- IT Work
- Police, Fire, or EMS reporting
- Software Programming / Development
- System Support / Repair
- Product Management
- Project Management
- Lawyer
- Doctor / Nurse

That's right, essentially, anyone who has to do regular reporting will benefit greatly from a text expansion program.
