Texter Portable PRERELEASE (as always...testers needed)

The coolest little app you probably don't know about!

About: Text substitution app Texter saves you countless keystrokes by replacing abbreviations with commonly used phrases you define. Unlike software-specific text replacement features, Texter runs in the Windows system tray and works in any application you're typing in. Texter can also set return-to markers for your cursor and insert clipboard contents into your replacement text, in addition to more advanced keyboard macros.

Download: Texter_Portable_0.6-PRERELEASE1.paf.exe

Installed size: Initially: 640KB -- After first run: varies

Notes:

• To find out more about this great program and exactly how to "make it go", visit the Texter webpage over on Lifehacker. Read the text, watch the videos, and read the comments. The videos are a great "sales pitch" for Texter and show it off well.
• The Texter program is already "portable" and self-contained, just not in PortableApps.com format. This made my job sorta easy. The first time you run the executable, it creates all it's own files in directory you ran it from.
• The program does have one quirk and that's that fact it creates 4,403 text files with only one word in each one that are used for spelling correction. Depending on the type of file system and unit allocation size used on the media you run this app from, those 4000+ files can take up a LOT of disk space (>17MB). I run the app from a hard drive so the size isn't an issue for me, but it may be for you.
• I run this app for it's text inserting/hotkey-like feature, not for spelling corrections. I assume most people don't need that feature and due to the media space wasted by the 4000+ files, those files aren't backed up into the \Data\settings dir on purpose. If you're in a pinch and lose a file somewhere somehow, export your "bundles" then delete all the files/directories in \App\Texter except for texter.exe and the next time you run the program, it'll rebuild all the files it needs to run.
• The key trapping used in this program MAY interfere with other apps that do something similar (makes sense when you think about it...) Read the comments on the Texter webpage for more info. (Remember...I just made it portable and can't work miracles with the original app ).
• The initial line of text at the top is because before this post, there was only one post found in the PortableApps.com forums when you search for "texter".
• Yes, I finally portablized an app that wasn't a game.
