• Suggest a text expander/ Clipboard app for my use case

  Typeit4Me: The original expander, I think. It's great and offers features not offers on others. Maybe more importantly, the crew behind it (a father and son) are great. The next major version (7) is in the works, and will hopefully offer some improvements in the UI department. It's not bad at all but needs a bit of a facelift. Source: about 1 year ago

• Clipboard like menubar app for copying and pasting info

  You might also want to check out aText, TypeIt4Me, Rocket Typist, TextExpander for this kind of thing. Source: over 1 year ago

• Predictive Text app

  Typeit4me: the original text expander for macOS. The feature set is the best I’ve found for my needs and text expansion is very fast. The UI is a bit long in the tooth, but version 3 with an updated UI is in the works. Also, customer service is great. It’s a family business and inquiries are answered quickly and comprehensively.

• Fellow comment copy/posters, what’s your go-to software for compiling?

  I use a text expander (TypeIt4Me, but there are a lot on the market). I can divide up the comments into active sets, so I can have sets for a particular class or homework, a set for grade grubbers, etc. I can even include variables and hyperlinks in my expansion. Completely saved my sanity. Source: over 1 year ago

• Has anyone tried to automate replies to common student emails?

  I don't do an auto reply, but I do use a text expander for common answers. (I use TypeIt4Me, but there are other good ones out there.). Source: over 2 years ago

• Learn AutoHotKey by stealing my scripts

  I use AutoKey on Linux. It's less powerful than AHK but uses native Python which is nice: https://github.com/autokey/autokey. - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

• AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D: Windows 11 vs. Ubuntu 23.04 Linux Performance

  On Linux, the more direct equivalent to AHK is the similarly named AutoKey. AHK itself is never going to be cross-platform, due to the low-level it interacts specifically with Windows, but AutoKey is the Linux equivalent, designed to interact low-level with Linux in a similar way to AHK on Windows.

• Text expansion app for Linux

  I've seen people mention AutoKey but I've never used it myself: https://github.com/autokey/autokey. Source: about 1 year ago

• Ergonomic lefty for Chromebook, with a good middle-click?

  You can also try remapping mouse buttons. I use autohotkey to remap the middle clock to the right click. Autohotkey is windows only, but there is autokey which might help if you are a heavy middle click user like me. Source: about 1 year ago

• Macros for Linux? Like autoit, or automated mouse/keyboard presses.

  There's also Autokey, not Wayland compatible though. Source: about 1 year ago
