That has worked well for me.
Let me just add that I don't know how TextExpander works. From what I can tell it can never work 100% reliably in MacVim since MacVim is modal. However, I don't see any major reason why it could not work in insert mode. Unfortunately I do not wish to spend time trying to fix this (if it is even possible, maybe TextExpander is at fault) since there are much more powerful ways to accomplish the same thing in Vim itself. I do get that some people have a large library of TextExpander snippets but hopefully one of those users will take an interest and look into this. So my answer to this is: please send me a patch.
