In short, it's the single most-used app on any of my Macs.įor as much as I love KM, it has one major shortcoming: All of those macros live in one large XML file. I use KM for everything from gathering monthly utility bills to inserting HTML code in blog posts to generating replacement license files for users to controlling iTunes to decrufting URLs when copying (future post coming on that one) to automatically naming and filing documents I scan to storing snippets for insertion into our apps' help files to opening oft-used URLs to adding key functionality to many apps such as Excel, Mail, Messages, Photos, Preview, Safari, etc. (These are not all user-facing many are macros that support other macros.)
