Hi, I hope I'm not offending anyone with the title of this post. I have heard of KM over the years, but never really saw who I would use it personally. I am not a programmer, I run a small business consultancy (www.asiastar.info) and a cafe ( starbookslao.com ). A week or two ago I decided to give it…

I think a website like Packal ( http://www.packal.org/ ) that aggregates all of the workflows for Alfred, it could be incredible to have something like it for KM.

@tom : Thanks for this script. I have used a modified version to solve a problem with the clipboard management of KM and Adobes Creative apps. See this post.

[image] Nikita: I am just wondering that because 'Keyboard Maestro Engine' burns through quite a bit of the battery @nikivi , I'm not sure why you perceive KM to be an excessive, or major consumer of energy or battery life. When I look at your Activity Monitor, it is very low compared with th…

[image] Nikita: I am actually curious what can I do with KM that I cannot do with Alfred already aside from I guess GUI manipulation? Here is an review from March 2014 comparing KM with Alfred. Alfred Or Keyboard Maestro: Which Works Best For You? Keep in mind that since then KM has made so…
