Looking For Text Insert Macro Addon?
Is there any way (or any addon) that I can insert commonly used text into a text box? I have tried AutoFill and, while it works fine for... well.. filling out forms... I cannot get it to work for what I need. Basically, I want to insert things like '¯\_(ツ)_/¯' rather than having to go to a page, select that, copy it, go back and paste it... or, worse yet ... remember and type that over and over again.

Maybe an extension like these:
- TextFast https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/textfast/
- Smart Text Expander https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/smart-text-expander/

I didn't, but I looked at it just now. That doesn't seem to be quite what I am looking for. From what I read, this seems to monitor text boxes and caches it in case the page crashes so you can recover that without losing what you've typed. That does look like something I could use (I usually SelectAll | Copy every time I submit text just in case) but this isn't what I'm looking for in this case, though. Thank you, though.

Thank you! Smart Text Expander didn't seem to work no matter what I did, but TextFast seems to work great. Thank you. I just didn't know what keywords to search for. I really appreciate it.
