All that can be done by AutoHotkey – INCLUDING(!) the ability to simply PAUSE all Hotkeys (or to switch to a different set)
I even use AutoHotkey with “Sub-Menus”. e.g. a menu for phrases…
Of course starting with AutoHotkey is not as easy as this tool
BUT:
– the advantages are overwhelming, understanding that you can do almost everything with AutoHotkey
– and you will find a lot of help in the community…
