I ran into a situation yesterday where I wanted to create over a thousand TextExpander snippets. I won’t go into detail about why, but I thought I’d share my solution. In my case, I was working with a huge CSV file where one field would be the abbreviation and another would be the expansion. The script I’m sharing below only works with CSV files containing two fields (abbreviation, expansion), but it can easily be extrapolated to work with much more complex sources of data.
