My goal is porting launcher mode from Karabiner to Keyboard Maestro. How it work is with a special modifier key able to chain up to 2 characters after it. Say we name the special modifier key “super”
For example:
“super” + “n” = action one
"super" + “n” + “k” = action two
"super" + “n” + “n” = action three
How I am trying to porting it to Keyboard Maestro is with “Palette” but I am having trouble writing the “conduction” loop. How can I set say
When tap a hotkey to trigger palette for one action and tap say “P” for an action BUT if I tap another key within “150 ms” it will do action two.
“Hotkey trigger palette” then tap say “N” for one action if no key fallow in 150ms
and at the same time if I
"Hotkey trigger palette" then tap say “N” then “K” for another action
At the end of the day I use this method to convert all my hotkey to “Nature Language Hotkey” for example:
“Gaussian Blur” in Photoshop I just trigger with “Hotkey” + “G” + “B”
“Show Tree” I trigger with “Hotkey” + “S” + “T”
Don’t have to remember any hotkey anymore
Also possible to have “invisible” palette? haha
Thank you

For those who stumble on this thread I recommend that you check out the 5th and 6th reply which contain my unfinished blog post on “Nature Language Hotkey”. The origin story which will free you to remember any hotkey any more.
