QuicKeys

The promise of computers has always been that they save us time and make life easier.

And we all know that isn't true. But QuicKeys can help.

With QuicKeys you can automate the common things you do all the time. And you can also automate the tedious things you don't do all the time — things that are hard to remember.

• One word to type them all!
  Let's start with Abbreviations. Abbreviations let you type a short word (aka an Abbreviation) in a document and automatically replace it with other longer text, run a QuicKeys Shortcut, or even paste in a QuicKeys Clip. Abbreviations are extremely useful for typing text super quickly. Now you can be verbose by being succinct.
• Automation, meet the Web.
  Web, meet Automation.
  Finally, QuicKeys automation has come to the web! Using Web Actions you can automate web pages in Safari. Web Actions give you amazing control of most web sites and the ever growing number of web applications.
• Everything is online… even QuicKeys!
  Then there is the new QuicKeys Online – an online resource center available from right inside the QuicKeys Editor. Here you can find the Shortcut Gallery where you can download pre-made Shortcuts submitted by other users (and you can share your own, too, if you wish), view tutorials, and read regularly updated tips and tricks of how to use QuicKeys (posted via QuicKeys on Twitter).
• A fresh, warm batch of files
  Another great new feature is Batch Processor. Batch Processor actions let you repeatedly run a Shortcut that performs actions for all the files in a particular folder.
• Instant Gratification
  For those times you just want to quickly automate something and keep right on going we've added the new Instant Shortcut. This special Shortcut lets you make a quick, temporary recording of your actions that can be played back over and over until you record a new Instant Shortcut. You can, of course, save a copy to add to your collection of useful Shortcuts.
• Have a QuicKey anytime, anywhere
  Do you have an iPhone/iPod touch? Get the QuicKeys Anywhere remote control app from the iTunes AppStore. It lets you run your Shortcuts back on your Mac from wherever you and your iPhone/iPod touch may be (with a WiFi or phone connection of course). Available now!
• Perfect Harmony
  If you need to rock out with QuicKeys, we have new MIDI triggers that let you trigger Shortcuts via MIDI enabled musical instruments or equipment. You can even specify musical chords as triggers to give you an incredible variety of possibilities.
• Like a hot key in a haystack
  We have also added the ability to search your Shortcuts based on all kinds of criteria (including hot keys). Plus you can save your searches as Smart Folders. Very useful for you power users with incredible amounts of Shortcuts.
