Getting a TextExpander snippet into a KM variable

Hey Chris,

AppleScript is probably your solution.

Here's what I would do with Typinator:

tell application "Typinator"
   set TypinatorExpansion to plain expansion of rule "cs " of rule set "Names"
end tell

--> Christopher Stone

tell application "Keyboard Maestro Engine"
   setvariable "tinExpansion" to TypinatorExpansion
end tell

Drop TextExpander on the Applescript Editor or better yet Script Debugger (The demo reverts to SD-Lite after 20 days, but it's still way more powerful than the Applescript Editor.)

TextExpander's syntax will be a bit different than Typinator's, but you can probably figure it out. If not let me know.

-Chris
