Title: [ANN] Keychain Macros X available - free
registration
this list has been extremely helpful to me. as one way of giving
back, i'd like to offer everyone on this list a free registration code
for my newly released shareware application: Keychain Macros X. (see
below for a description of the app)
if anyone on this list would like a registration code, please
send me an email and include the name under which you wish to
register, your return email address, and mention this list.
I am pleased to announce the release and immediate availability
of
Keychain Macros X.
Keychain Macros X will enable you to browse the
World Wide Web more efficiently and securely than ever before. It will
enable you to use different secure names and passwords for each web
page that you must log into, but you don't have to remember a variety
of names and passwords, nor do you have to keep scraps of paper around
with your names and passwords on them (a very insecure, but all too
common approach).
Keychain Macros X is a keyboard macro program.
This means that when you type a key combination that you have defined,
known as a "hot key" or "trigger key",
Keychain Macros X will then type a replacement string
for you, just as if you had typed the replacement string yourself.
Keychain Macros X is unique amongst keyboard macro
programs (and there are many) in that it enables you to define
different replacement strings for the same trigger key and that the
replacement string is stored securely in a keychain.
Keychain Macros X chooses which replacement string to
use based on which hot key you pressed, which application you are
running when you typed the hot key, and which window is the front
window.
E.g., if you are browsing the web with Safari and you are viewing
the login page for QualityWidgets.com you could type your password hot
key, and Keychain Macros X would retrieve the
password for this site from its keychain and type it in for you. If
later on, you are viewing the login page for CheaperWidgets.com, you
could type the same trigger key, but this time,
Keychain Macros X would retrieve the password for this
page and type it for you. Thus you can use longer and more secure
passwords for each page, yet you only have to remember one key
combination, regardless of which site you are viewing. You no longer
have to use the same password for every site, nor do you have to keep
scraps of paper around with your passwords on them! And you no longer
have to worry about making typing mistakes as you type in a long
meaningless string of numbers and characters (the most secure type of
password).
Keychain Macros X supports the use of 4 hot
keys. The hot keys are referred to as:
1) the "Name" hot
key;
2) the "Password" hot key;
3) the "Other" hot
key; and
4) the "Strings" hot
key.
The names of these hot keys are simply for convenience and as a
recommendation as to how to use them, but they don't have to be used
this way. E.g., normally you would use the "Password" hot key for
entering the password into a web page. But you may want to use this
hot key to enter a phone number for a page that doesn't have a field
for passwords.
The "Name," "Password," and "Other" hot keys are used
to look up a replacement string and type it in. The "Strings" hot
key is used to bring up the "Keychain Macros X Replacement
Strings" dialog. This dialog is used to specify and edit the
replacement strings for a window.
Keychain Macros X is "try before you buy"
shareware. Feel free to use Keychain Macros X without
paying anything to determine whether or not it is useful for you. Once
you have made your decision, then please purchase a registration code
and register the program or stop using it.
Keychain Macros X relies on the honesty of the user
community and is not crippled in any way, even if its not registered.
However, if you use it too long without registering,
Keychain Macros X will nag you more and more
frequently.
Keychain Macros X is available now at
<http://www.KeychainMacros.com>.
thanx,
ken
