Schmitz Ergonis has released [1]Typinator 6.5 with new controls to help define system-wide 'smart substitutions' settings (such as for quotes, dashes, text replacements, etc.), which could lead to problems with some expansions that required regular quote characters (and not smart quotes). Typinator 6.5 turns off smart substitutions by default, but they can be enabled by right-clicking within an expansion field and selecting an option from the Substitutions submenu. Speaking of quotes, Typinator 6.5 now supports French quoting style (with double angle quotation marks and non-breaking spaces) for nested abbreviations. The update also no longer displays the 'must not be empty' message immediately after creating a new item, works around a crash when expanding text in OS X 10.10 Yosemite's sharing window with the 'quick expansion' option enabled, fixes a bug related to cursor positioning in apps created by Fluid, and reduces the amount of logging in case of certain events.
