Texter is a simple but effective Windows application running in the system tray and doing a very simple job: replacing abbreviations with the phrases you define.

Let’s say you use XHTML frequently and you define an abbreviation like "divmake" and press "tab" (you can define the hotkey) and it can produce you:

<div class=""></div>

as an example.

You can use it for anything like generating your signature on-the-fly or any other frequently typed text.

Adding icons to text links without any programming, not using if elses or functions is possible with Iconize which is only a css file and the related icons.

How does Iconize work?

Iconize, which is a css file, simply looks for the pre-defined texts in the website and shows the icon mentioned in the css file. For ex: Iconize looks for the .pdf text in the website and when finds it, adds the icon after that.
