I asked a former Windows 7/AutoHotKey user what OS he switched to and if he missed AHK. His response was fantastic, impressing me with its thoroughness and honesty. The comment is buried in some page few will ever see, so I decided to post it here. Please show him some love. Thank you.

  • Found Piper but it can't do multiple profiles on my G402.

  • espanso

    Cross-platform Text Expander written in Rust

  • https://github.com/federico-terzi/espanso is quite cool and can cover for some uses of AHK. For the others, I just use dwm keybinds and a rofi script launcher. I never used more than the basics of AHK though.

    Turn any input device into a dedicated macrodevice.

  • Here is the github repo if anyone is interested.
