v0.9.12 (beta)
Pre-releaseText Template Manager 0.9.12-beta
A hotkey-driven text-template paste tool for Windows — organize reusable snippets in folders,
give them shortcuts, and paste them into any application from a global Quick Paste window.
Install
Download TextTemplateManager-Setup-0.9.12-beta.exe from the assets below and run it.
- Per-user install — no administrator rights required.
- Self-contained — the .NET 8 runtime and the Windows App SDK are bundled, so nothing else needs to be installed. The bundled runtime is always the latest .NET 8 release available at the time this version was built.
Already have it installed? The app offers this update automatically, or you can trigger it from Help ▸ Check for Updates.
Note — Remote Desktop (RDP): If Text Template Manager runs on both your local computer and a remote computer you connect to over RDP, the global Quick Paste hotkey always opens Quick Paste on the local computer — Windows delivers a registered global hotkey locally, so it never reaches the remote session. Give each machine a different Quick Paste hotkey, or run only one instance, to avoid the clash.
What's new in this release
New
- Keyboard navigation in Quick Paste and the tree. The Quick Paste tree and shortcut lists are now fully keyboard-drivable: arrow keys move the selection, ← / → expand and collapse folders, Enter or Space pastes a template (or expands a folder), and Esc steps back through focus (tree → search → shortcut list → close). Holding Alt now switches cleanly to multi-key entry. In the main window, Enter or Space also expands the selected folder.
- "none" shortcut-prefix separator. In Settings ▸ Sync you can now join a sync folder's prefix directly to a shortcut with no separator (for example
ANDMSG), alongside-and.. - Browser connector (beta). A local, opt-in connector (Settings ▸ General ▸ Browser extensions) lets a companion browser extension list your templates and fetch rendered content over
127.0.0.1, secured by a pairing token. See the API documentation linked in settings.
Fixes
- Opening Quick Paste no longer collapses the main window's tree.
- The link dialog shows the existing text. Editing a link with the cursor inside it now fills the Text field (it was left blank, and could replace the link's display text with the URL).
Changed
- The in-app handbook is now called the Manual (Help ▸ Open Manual).
