Many times I need to simply surround some text by some signs, like curly braces, square brackets and more depending on what it is exactly I am writing, scripting or programming.
Some programs, like TexPad and a few others, have options to set up these commands, but I'd like to have these options working outside of this program also.
Even when writing at various online site, like StackExchange, the syntax, which I think is great, I need to surround text by *
, and other signs for the markup. Then it would be great to be able to just select some text, and press a key combination, and the text would be surrounded by the chosen signs.
This could possibly also work, if there was a small non-obtrusive GUI, like for instance Popclip, which does have this feature, but I don't really like it too much. Sometimes it doesn't show up, or acts slow. Also no keyboard shortcuts.
I've tried searching a bit, but didn't really find any programs that does this globally. Also, it needs to work on Mac OSX El Capitan (and beyond)
