WireKeys - macro, hotkey manager

#1 Post by just.odd.dude »

WireKeys is an all-in-one tool for power users for automating common operations with text, applications, your desktop, and many Windows features. Define hotkeys using any keyboard combinations you can devise. You can even include mouse button clicks and wheel spins (if your mouse is so equipped) or remote buttons. You can automate and virtually eliminate almost all of your daily, repetitive tasks - file and directory manipulation, windows manipulation, text replacement, text processing, file uploads and downloads, and more. Extend WireKeys' functionality with additional plugins. The four most useful plugins (Window's traits, Autotext, special hotkeys support and Macro recorder) are already included in the installation package.

Despite the age I went back and retested. Unfortunately, I didn't have a lot of luck getting this to work on Win10. The hotkey to trigger the main program didn't seem to function. I'm guessing it's due to OS incompatibility.
