Keyboard Maestro and BetterTouchTool have been my favorite Mac utilities for many years.

One tiny example: I use hidutil + Keyboard Maestro to map my Caps Lock key to CMD+Tab. I found that constantly hitting CMD+Tab throughout the day caused me some wrist strain.

So instead, I now map my Caps Lock to Keypad 0 using hidutil. And then I use Keyboard Maestro to invoke CMD+Tab everytime Keypad 0 occurs. So now, CMD+Tab is just a single keystroke. It's a small win, but it's something that I do many many times per day.

A second example: I use 1Password, but sometimes some apps or sites DO NOT allow me to paste my password. Ugh. So I use a Keyboard Maestro macro to type out my copied password. Now that I think of it, I hope they're not stealing all my passwords! ;-)

This is something I haven't thought of! Thanks a lot for the tip!

Here's my macro:

It just types out whatever is in my clipboard. I use it for copying and inserting credit card numbers and passwords, since some sites don't allow you to paste into those text fields.
