- -----------------------------------------
-
-
- * 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.
-
- At Simple Software, we love to listen to users. If you have
- suggestions of your own, or if one of the above enhancements
- interests you, feel free to let us know.
