Template Master — a hotkey template picker for Windows

I reply to the same handful of things constantly — greetings, thank-yous, meeting requests — and retyping them (or hunting through old chats to copy-paste one) was slowing me down. So I built Template Master: a small Windows app that sits in the background and lets you drop a saved reply into whatever you're typing in, from anywhere, with a hotkey.

How it works

Press the hotkey (Ctrl+F9 by default) while typing in any app — a browser, a chat client, an email — and a small picker pops up. Search or arrow down to the template you want, hit Enter, and it's pasted right where your cursor was.

Templates can also have $variables in them, like:

Hi $name, thanks for reaching out!

When you insert a template like that, it asks you to fill in $name first.

Other bits

• Interface in Ukrainian or English, switchable in Settings
• Manage templates (add/edit/delete) from the main window
• Hotkey is fully rebindable, and can be toggled on/off

Download

It's a Python script — you'll need Python installed to run it (see the README in the zip for exact steps). Windows only, since it relies on Windows APIs to send the paste keystroke to whatever window you were in.

Not fancy, not published anywhere official — just something that saves me a few minutes a day.
