• Learn AutoHotKey by stealing my scripts

  I use AutoKey on Linux. It's less powerful than AHK but uses native Python which is nice: https://github.com/autokey/autokey. - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

• AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D: Windows 11 vs. Ubuntu 23.04 Linux Performance

  On Linux, the more direct equivalent to AHK is the similarly named AutoKey. AHK itself is never going to be cross-platform, due to the low-level it interacts specifically with Windows, but AutoKey is the Linux equivalent, designed to interact low-level with Linux in a similar way to AHK on Windows.

• Ergonomic lefty for Chromebook, with a good middle-click?

  You can also try remapping mouse buttons. I use autohotkey to remap the middle clock to the right click. Autohotkey is windows only, but there is autokey which might help if you are a heavy middle click user like me. Source: about 1 year ago

• Macros for Linux? Like autoit, or automated mouse/keyboard presses.

  There's also Autokey, not Wayland compatible though. Source: over 1 year ago

• Ask HN: Why is on-device search terrible?

  You could try using SwiftSearch to see if you can find the files somewhere in your computer. It too believe that it was probably win defender being funny and simply deleted every trace of it though. Source: over 1 year ago

• LPT: Frustrated by a slow Windows search? Go to your Control Panel and open "Indexing Options", then click Modify. It's possible your C: drive has not been indexed. Index your files and you searches will be instant.

  SwiftSearch is an awesome app that loads the whole NTFS table in on all connected drive, and searches virtually instantly. Source: almost 3 years ago

• LPT: On Windows machines, in "indexing options" set it to your entire hard drive(s). This will greatly increase the speed of searching for files.

  LPT: Get swiftsearch it's a million times faster than the windows search function. Source: almost 3 years ago

• BOOKMARKS LOST

  I'd use a file system wide search tool like everything or wizfile or swiftsearch or whatever other tool you prefer and look for those files as if multiple profiles are in use they might be somewhere else. Source: about 3 years ago
