Keyboard macros

[player285]

Is there any software that I can use for keyboard macros? I want to use it for playing games like starcraft where a lot of tasks are repetitive and I can't find a software that does the job on a regular keyboard... I have a Corsair strafe so I can use the CUE software but what about regular keyboards that dont have a software for them. Thanks for any help!

I would suggest AutoHotKey. Taran also recommended it in a video where he programs a second keyboard solely for macros.

Wait wait wait, so you can hook up a second keyboard and create macros that only exist on that particular keyboard? I use AutoHotKey a little, but I would be really interested in this. Can you provide a link please?

 

Thanks

You'll need more than AutoHotKey IIRC and you'll have to write scripts, how ever he was programming specific editing actions rather than some more standard macros so I'm not sure. Here's a link.
