    So about this:

    https://github.com/croian/mouseless-issues/blob/main/mousele...

    You at no point explain why your application needs to interact with SSL in any fashion.

    What's up with that?

    The combination of giving elevated permission to control the host computer, with network interaction? That's a bad combination. Why are these things combined in your application?

  14. griddle

    Hammerspoon plugin to use the keyboard as a mouse by selecting successively smaller grids on the screen (by msolomon)

    For MacOS users of Hammerspoon, I made a similar plugin based on devoting the screen into successively smaller 3x3 grids: https://github.com/msolomon/griddle

    It’s free and fully customizable too.
