TextExpander 2.0 released
SmileOnMyMac today released an update to one of my favorite applications: TextExpander. This snippet expanding utility automatically replaces typed text "labels" with longer user-specified "snippets." Version 2 adds several new features including snippet groups allowing you to organize your snippets better, snippet syncing across .mac, and even AppleScript snippets "which expand to the result of the script." Version 2.0 is a free upgrade for registered users, and $29.95 for everyone else; a demo is available. If you're upgrading remember to disable TextExpander before you install the new version (I had some problems with that).

I actually had to reboot to get it to work properly.

why would we care when we now know when to get 10.5?

It would be nice if this actually worked.

Works fine for me after upgrading. Did you guys that upgraded read the readme where it states to disable TextExpander first before installing?
One thing I'm noticing on my system now is that it doesn't interfere with the dock any longer...whee!

Did anyone else have a problem where TE would just stop expanding keywords? It works for me after a restart, but eventually doesn't. I'm not sure what triggers the "doesn't" part, but yeah.
