- AutoKey, Version 2.0 - Packing List -
A U T O K E Y
---------------
Version 2.0
-------------
M O D I F I C A T I O N H I S T O R Y
-----------------------------------------
* Version 1.0. March 1992. Initial release on CompuServe
and a few other places.
* Version 2.0. September 1992. Fancied up the Main
Window, added a .INI file capability, improved help file
access (don't have to put AutoKey in \AUTOKEY directory
to get help), removed the redundant Turn On/Off button.
Released lots of places.
Things to look for in the future:
* Much cleaner user interface. No more typing; AutoKey
will learn what you want it to do by recording your
actions.
* More glitz.
* Complete application configuration through the user
interface. You should be able to edit the application
name, window title or EXE file name without disturbing
other parameters. (You can get around this now by
directly editing the AUTOKEY.INI file.)
* Shortcut keystroke macros. "Schiz" magically becomes
"Schizophrenia", etc. The advantage of having AutoKey do
this is it would happen in every application you use,
without requiring a macro for each application, or a search-
and replace operation in your word processor.
* Enhanced interval control. Instead of every x minutes,
you could dispatch autokeys once a day, every hour, once
a year, after certain keys are typed, etc.
* Auto-pilot mode. AutoKey will sit in the background and
watch what you're doing. When it sees you telling an
application (any application) to "File/Save", it'll
remember that program, and automagically repeat that
File/Save at some master interval.
* Expanded application control. Instead of simple
keystrokes or menu commands, AutoKey could become a
full-fledged macro recorder, and it could also execute
other applications or terminate them at user-specified
times.
