Publisher's description of HotKey QL

The HotKey QL system gives the ability to keep all the keyboard shortcuts in one central place; this is very different to the way shortcuts are implemented by Windows. The option to add a description to each of the key combinations provides a better understanding of the action performed by the key combination. As the list is in a central system, there is no need to track application shortcuts or any need to keep shortcut files just so that a key combination can be used to perform the action.In addition to standard shortcuts, HotKey QL can run scripts in the forms batch, Visual Basic scripts and Java scripts. These can be controlled using key combinations or just run from the editor. Scripts are available from our website. Version 2.0.5 may include unspecified improvements, enhancements and bug fixes.

Editor's review of HotKey QL

• "HotKey QL"

• Reviewed by: CNET Staff
• Version reviewed: HotKey QL 2.0.5

Create and manage hot keys with this simple creator and manager, but scripting may be difficult for some users. HotKey QL's simple and sparse interface is intuitive, but the help file is meager. HotKey QL resides in your system tray for quick access to the shortcut editor screen. To create a shortcut, you select from the drop-down list or enter the action you want to execute. Assigning a hot key is as simple as starting the Capture function and pressing the desired key combination. Advanced users can easily create scripts using Visual Basic, Java, or Windows Batch commands. HotKey QL provides a small window to place the script and offers a handy test button. The publisher offers a few script examples on its Web site, but a script library would be a welcome addition to HotKey QL. The demo is limited to the first of 20 uses or 30 days. Easy enough for most novice users, HotKey QL could be helpful to savvy intermediate users with basic scripting knowledge.

  Version: HotKey QL 2.0.5

  "Another product trying to take over my machine"

  by rwgcnet on August 23, 2007

  Pros: nothing, did not run

  Cons: Installation tried to set itself to run each time the computer was booted. This is not allowed in my environment, until I DECIDE I LIKE THE SOFTWARE. When I denied access the installation uninstalled itself. Product sucks.
