Keyboard Maestro enables you to run any Apple Script, or any compiled OSA script, in any application simply by pressing a key on your keyboard. This feature alone enables Keyboard Maestro to bring an incredible amount of power to your keyboard. On this web page you can find a repository of useful (and free!) Apple Scripts that we or others have created, or learn more about Apple Script so that you can write your own custom scripts.
