Readme

Short abbreviations become your email, your signature, or today's date when you press Tab. It works in every app, because it types for you rather than living inside one.

@@Tabyour email
;sigTabyour signature
/dateTabtoday's date, such as 2026-10-19

Needs Rebind 3.5.0 or newer on Windows or macOS. No extra permissions.

Settings

  • Expand with: default Tab. When no abbreviation comes right before it, Tab works as usual.
  • Snippets tab: three abbreviations, each with the text it expands to. Write {date} anywhere in a text to insert today's date. Text changes apply right away.

Limits

  • Write abbreviations in lowercase; what you type is matched in lowercase.
  • Abbreviations can use letters, digits, ; / . , - and @. The @ is read as Shift+2, so it works on US-layout keyboards.
  • The expansion is pasted, so it replaces what was on the clipboard.
  • Mouse clicks and arrow keys do not reset what it has seen you type; press Space or Enter to start fresh.
  • Live use remains unverified on Windows and macOS.

Stop

Stop the package from the editor toolbar, or press Left Ctrl + Left Alt + K to stop all scripts.
