What I use on Linux instead of Autohotkey
Hello everyone. In this video I explain what I did to get a macro file running in Linux. On Windows I was heavily using Autohotkey to improve my quality of life but on Linux that is not an option since AHK doesn't run on Linux. In order to get something similar going I chose to write a macro file in python, which (for me at least, because I'm not an experienced coder) has some limitations compared to Autohotkey, but it was the closest that I could get to what I needed from it.
