Has anyone looked at the new version of QuicKeys for OS X?
I've ordered it at work but haven't gotten my hands on it yet. The classic
version could handle all the typing stuff and was AppleScriptable, but with
a poor, counter-intuitive implementation.
I'm really hoping that PreFab software will be able to develop an OS X
version of Player, simply the best AppleScript utility for puppeting the
user interface.
