Will pick up on a changed name as you log in, not just when you change it.

Updated:

Will now sniff your name from Gmail (and pick up on any name changes), so in most cases, you shouldn't have to configure it.

Added a couple of default expansions as described above.

davidschubert: I'm afraid it's hard for me to help you without more to go on. Anyone else having this problem?

When you're at Gmail, do you see this script listed if you right-click the monkey in the bottom-right corner of the Firefox window?

davidschubert: The tab key works as usual (moving the focus to "send") unless the caret (the vertical line that represent where text input will happen) is just after a trigger.

So if you type

Hello.

reg

and press tab, "reg" should turn into
Regards,
John Doe

. I recommend you configure the script with your own name and whatever snippets you want.

I think I missed something, it isn´t working for me: I write a new mail in gmail, press tab and nothing happens (except the focus goes to "send").
May someone help?
