Show HN: I automated 1/2 of my typing
https://kapeli.com/dash
Somewhat similar tool to Autokey for MacOS that I use as a text expander.
Allows for great customization - appending ; to a phrase ensures you don't accidentally expand a keystroke into a phrase/URL/etc
";url" expands into "whatever string you configure"

Custom Instructions for ChatGPT
This reminded me that I needed to settle on a good system-wide Snippets manager for MacOS.
Having waded through the morass of buggy and subscription-only services many times in the past, I thought to give the open-source Espanso another go, but its last commit was many months ago and I simply could not get it to recognise Ventura permissions.
It was then that I remembered that the excellent Dash (https://kapeli.com/dash), for which I had already paid a very reasonable one-off fee, has a snippets manager. And it’s perfect.

How can I find what styles are available as an argument for a modifier?
I use Dash for my API reference, partly because it also has all the other references I need for other languages. It’s easier to paw through when you’ve got exactly this sort of problem.

Dash. Look up documentation really fast. Also useful for system wide snippets.

This sub turned me onto Raycast, but... No syncing of settings / keyboard shortcuts between machines??
Hey, the app I recommend shows you all the commands you need per app not just for macOS! Support for programming languages? Download this. For git, docker and neovim download this one.

quicklisp-apropos: Apropos across Quicklisp libraries
Some time ago I had a thought that it would be interesting to make something like https://quickref.common-lisp.net/ but in form of docset for [Dash](https://kapeli.com/dash) documentation browser. This will give not only the search, but also a browsable documentation on all Common Lisp packages!

It's been almost 9 months since Ventura was released. What's your thoughts about "Stage Manager"?
I'm using amethyst as my Window manager, and I'm feeling fine

Window manager that behaves like on WindowsOS?
And for the second part, we have Wins to manually drag and set the window position, and Amethyst to set it automatically.

If you find the native window management lackluster (like I do), you can install a window manager like Amethyst, or yabai, veeer, or many others.

I also used Amethyst, but I think yabai is much better

Witch – macOS window switcher replacement
Amethyst is my tiling manager of choice for macOS: https://ianyh.com/amethyst/
It was a little buggy when Ventura dropped, but it gets frequent updates and has stabilized in the past few months.

How to tile (auto-fit) all open windows on the screen? Example: If you have 8 windows open, you want to auto-fit all 8 windows on the same screen. What about 3rd party apps?
This can be done through third party programs such as amethyst. It's not a native feature unless I am mistakened.

`cask "amethyst"` [link][oss] for `i3` like window management

> tmux helps all 3, but not particular good at either.
iTerm2 on macOS has some nice tmux integration[1]. Basically, you run a tmux session (using tmux -CC), but the actual window management on the client side is handled by iTerm2. This works pretty nicely with the tiling WM (Amethyst[2]) I use on macOS.
If anybody is aware of Wayland compositors that integrate similarly, please let me know. I'd love to be able to do the same on my linux machines.
