  • Auto-deletion of marked text or text in icons before the insertion of new text

  • Direct communication with supporting applications

    TA TextAid version 1.50
    TAb TextAid version 1.52 (beta)
    This is a previously unreleased beta version of TextAid that saves its macro definitions with a user filetype (&0E5); development was abandoned before a proper filetype allocation was requested. This version is believed to be stable, but should be treated with mild caution.
