Application-specific settings

Espanso can use application-specific configuration. Abbrio’s Apps window helps you review those files and see which sets and packages apply to a particular app.

Open or add an application

Open Apps from the toolbar or the sidebar footer. The list shows non-default application configurations that Abbrio recognizes. Use the add menu to choose a running application, search for one, or select an application file. Adding an app creates its configuration file; removing one asks first and moves that file to the Trash.

Review per-app settings

Select an application to compare its set and package states with the general configuration. The grid lets you change whether a set or package applies to that app. Turn all off disables its expansions while leaving the grid available for later changes.

The detail area shows the generated configuration text and application-specific options such as paste shortcut and delays; inherited values are identified. Use Reveal in Finder or Open in External Editor to inspect the generated file. Avoid changing the same file in both Abbrio and another editor at the same time.

Abbrio can also create a configuration that keeps Espanso from expanding inside Abbrio’s own windows. The General tab in Settings controls that preference. This app-specific file is separate from the configurations you create for other apps.
