How? The features of ZenKEY
ZenKEY allows you to control all aspects of your
computer via keystrokes. Using the configuration utility of the ZenKEY
Wizard, you can create menus, each
containing items which perform "actions". You can "fire"
these actions by clicking on the item or pressing a key-combination.
Using these actions, you can:
|
|
Work and play on an
Infinite desktop (almost)
Move across and place program windows on an unlimited
virtual desktop space.
Open a program or a file
These actions launch a
program or open a document (with its associated application). If you
launch a program that is already running, you can choose whether this
program should be brought to the foreground, or whether ZenKEY should
launch a new instance of it. You can also choose to launch programs
automatically on ZenKEY startup.
Control program windows
These commands can be used to reposition program windows, to change
their properties, to alter their transparency (XP and 2000 only) or
even to send them to the system tray. You can tell ZenKEY whether you
want the action to be performed on the currently active window
(default), or whichever window is lying under the mouse cursor.
Automatically make windows transparent
Makes windows transparent as you switch between them. Watch inactive
windows blend into the desktop.
Iconify windows
Replace any window with a 'live' icon (showing CPU time and
memory usage), saving desktop real estate.
Issue a Media command
Send a special 'Windows Media' command to the computer. These
can be used to play, pause or stop compatible Media players, change the
system volume, bass or treble, or even open default web browsers and
e-mail clients.
Open a folder
Open a folder in Windows explorer
Open an Internet location
Open an Internet resource, which can be either a website
(http://), a secure website (https://) or an FTP site (File Transfer
Protocol).
Perform an Internet Search
Perform an Internet search using almost any Search Engine
Issue a Windows System command
Perform operating system functions, such as shutting down your
computer, starting the screen saver, opening and closing a CD
door or altering the mouse pointer speed.
Control Winamp
From playing or pausing to changing volume, these commands allow you to
comprehensively control the Winamp media player (or compatibles, such
as QCD Player and STP)
Open ZenKEY groups
Opens any ZenKEY menu containing any other groups or actions.
Issue Windows System commands
Start the screen saver, open a CD Door, Restart or Shutdown Windows,
compose an E-mail, or switch between tasks.
Simulate a series of keystrokes
Emulate a series of keystrokes, and thus automate the typing of
repetitive text or the entering of passwords.
Open a Control panel applet
Directly open an item which appears in your control panel
Switch between active tasks
Allows you to move between active programs
Perform ZenKEY actions
These actions control ZenKEY and change its behavior.
