Beeftext

Beeftext is a text snippet management tool for Windows, inspired by TextExpander.

TextExpander is a great program, packed with features. To keep the company profitable, Smile had to switch to a subscription-based model in 2016. And for people who only need the basic features of TextExpander, the monthly price is way too high.

Beeftext aims to be the best possible alternative to TextExpander. Beeftext is an open-source project written in C++ using the Qt framework.
