7 Awesome Uses For PhraseExpress Text Expander: http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/7-awesome-uses-phraseexpress-textexpander/

bartelsmediagmbh on 2013-04-18 10:00

PhraseExpress is one of the most popular Text Expander software and available for more than 10 years. Hundred thousands of happy users have no problem with PhraseExpress at all and enjoy it every day.

We invest all our time and hear to make what PhraseExpress is today. The portable feature alone cost us a lot of extra efforts to meet the portable app specification requirements, particularly those by portableapps.com.

All that is provided completely free-of-charge as advertised at http://www.phraseexpress.com/freeware.htm

The quality hopefully shows you that PhraseExpress is no hobby project but made by fulltime developers. So, we need to generate revenue by asking Professionals to license it.

Sadly, a few individuals who may have been caught cheating our fair use license policy try to harm our reputation rather than taking responsibility for their license abuse. Which is a shame.

You can easily identify those people as they don’t provide evidence. We know why – The license notification in later PhraseExpress versions would debunk in plain English why it has been triggered.

Here is our deal to those people:

Download PhraseExpress 9.1.29 (or later) and publish a screenshot of the alleged “false commercial use detection” which allegedly differs from what we advertise. If someone really should find a bug we will fix it instantly and give away 5 PhraseExpress Professional Edition licenses worth US$ 699.- to the next 5 posters (providing real identity to us) here.

“Abraxas”, we are waiting for you!

@Midas: PhraseExpress NEVER secretly transmits personal information anywhere. It just checks locally, if it is running from a Windows Server OS. This certainly is no privacy issue Would you claim “the same if a scanner application checks the OS for a connected scanner or if a photo organizer application would prompt to import photos if it detects a camera being connected to PC?

@IanFromBarrie: Please note that the commercial detection has changed drastically with latest PhraseExpress version 9.

Thanks for the input, bartelsmediagmbh. On behalf of other TPFC users that appreciate your software, I thank you also for the generosity of providing Phrase Express as a freeware.

Hi, outskirter, and thanks for the feedback and bug report. I've just posted v1.0.4 which should remove the temp folder when the program exits. =]

Nice tool which I use a lot in my office (XP) but somehow this tool seams not to work under Vista. I could not figure out why.

RomainR on 2012-07-13 09:09

You can download them on http://www.yadabyte.com/downloads/

Worked well and dead-simple but oddly didn't seem to work on LibreOffice 3.5.5.3 maybe because of it's own autocomplete system

I'm explaining my issue above. For example, When I write "hth", program must write "Hope this helps!". But it writes "Hope ths helps!" (no lower i) No trouble with upper İ and other letters. only lower i. I can't make it write lower i. I'm using Windows 7 x64 Turkish.

lautrepay on 2012-07-01 14:37

@veyselcelik: I've been using TyperTask for about a year and have never had problems with missing letters. Perhaps a problem with the rules?
I can replicate your issue if I add this rule:
"i="
(with no quotes)

veyselcelik on 2012-07-03 15:55

@lautrepay, I just downloaded and type hth. and it write Hope ths helps! (with no). it's own example rule, so i didn't write any rules. I guess it is about my windows' language.

List Numberer v1.1.0

  • 882KB (uncompressed)
  • Suggested by Checker

List Numberer allows you to create a text number listing in various customizable ways. The program is useful for automatically numbering lists where Word and many other programs only create number systems according to predefined formats.

Choose starting number, customizable increments (e.g. 1, 2, 3; 1, 3, 5; 1, 4, 7), prefixes and suffixes to numbers (e.g. A-1, 2B, etc.), and the ability to strip leading numbers (for already numbered lists that need to be fixed), restart numbering for blank lines, and more.

When creating a numbered list, most text editors are remarkably short on intelligent options and manual entry isn't an option. Although it doesn't support any advanced formatting that other programs use, text-only means it works for every editor and not just Word / Wordpad.
