I’ve started going through and cleaning up my large collection of TextExpander snippets, starting with the ones I share publicly. In the process I’m moving away from my homebrew snippet sharing system to using TextExpander’s new(ish) public snippet groups. Once I’ve pruned and updated all of the groups in the te-snippets tool, I’ll redirect that page to a list of my publicly shared snippet groups.

Ok, so we’re all in Zoom way too much these days. We’re clicking links in calendar entries, Slack messages, and emails. They’re opening a browser tab every time, which then opens Zoom. I wrote a little script to clean up all those tabs, but that’s a kludge. Choosy is better.

I made a quick PopClip extension today for adding hard line wrapping to blocks of text. In general I’m a fan of letting text wrap automatically, but when I’m coding I prefer hard line breaks at 70-80 columns. Easy to do in almost any decent text editor, but elsewhere (ahem, Xcode) I wanted a fast way to do it.

Thanks to TextExpander for sponsoring BrettTerpstra.com this week! I’m a huge fan, and my life without TextExpander would be very tedious, indeed.

I did a little more weekend work on Bunch, and I’ll probably post an update on some exciting new stuff soon. I’d love it if you helped test by downloading the beta version and checking the changelog to see what’s up. Anyway, that’s not the point of this post.

Thanks to Unite 4 from BZG for sponsoring BrettTerpstra.com this week! I’d been missing a good, modern app for making Single Site Browsers, and Unite came to the rescue. I highly recommend it!

Are you ready? I kinda went down a rabbit hole with Bunch this last week. It’s a lot. Because this release is so big, I’m releasing it as a beta first. All of the documentation for the new version is at brettterpstra.com/bunch-beta/docs, and the download link can be found at brettterpstra.com/bunch-beta/download.

Ok, one more batch of updates for Bunch. It’s just so much fun to work on that I spent last weekend on it. Don’t worry, nvUltra is getting an equal amount of love.
