Nice idea but it doesn't support most writing programs available for the Mac. I know that this is an initial release, but come on, it doesn't work with Apple's Mail, Pages or Safari, nor does it work with Microsoft Word, BBEdit, Yojimbo, Mori and many other applications.
Amendment also doesn't let you add words to the dictionary while you're typing.
Do NOT install this. Disabling it didn't work. Couldn't find an uninstall feature. I tried to remove it with AppZapper now i get gobbledy gook on my screen. The developer has abandoned it and there is no support, advice, not even an email link on the amendment site anymore. AVOID THIS APP.
I uninstalled this most ridiculous concept in software minutes after installing, months ago. I don't even want to review this thing now, the only way I can understand it is if it were a joke.
Now, several weeks (months?) after the fact, a dialog began popping up with every new app I launch...
It had left behind an input manager...go to /Library/InputManagers/ and remove the Amendment folder there. If anyone knows of other droppings it leaves, please add.
Installing Amendment creates problems with other programs... so far Onyx and Visualhub generate AppleScript errors... Onyx errors are on startup and Visualhub errors occur on just about any selection made after startup. I traced it back to remembering that I installed Amendment which is pretty useless to me since I would want such a program for use with Mail and Applework (word processing) among other programs Amendment didn't work with. Anyway when I removed Amendment Applescript errors stopped in the useful programs I was pulling my hair out for!!!
I have been using Amendment for over a month now and I have to say I absolutely love it. Despite it's short comings (the fact that it doesn't work in Pages or Mail) it has increased my productivity by 12%!
Seriously though, it's great. I strong reccomend it.
