Are you tired of repeatedly typing the same text over and over again?

  • The custom email signature you only use for your close friends.
  • The markdown snippet you use 5 times a day.
  • The text emoji you like so much (\/) (°,,,°) (\/).

Beeftext is made for you. Beeftext allows you to define combos. A combo associates a short word that you are unlikely to type in a normal situation (a keyword) with a piece of long or complex text you often need to type (a snippet).

From now on, every time you type the keyword, in any text area of any application that support copy/paste (99.9% of them do), the combo is triggered and Beeftext automatically replaces the keyword by its associated snippet.

And thanks to Unicode encoding, this text can be in any language, using any kind of characters, even exotic ones.

Beeftext is a free, open-source text submission tool that contains no ads or malware. #ToolsThursday Share on X

Now you may be saying, “But Jim, text substitution tools are not new.” That’s true, they’re not.

According to the Beeftext website, Beeftext exists because on the windows platform, the existing solutions are either expensive, closed-source, unmaintained, complex to setup, or any combination of those. And Beeftext is free, open-source and contains no ads or malware.

Give Beeftext a try.
