AutoHotkey
Site: AutoHotkey
I have not played with this much, but it looks totally Fab!
This is what they say about it:
AutoHotkey is a free, open-source utility for Windows. With it, you can:
-Automate almost anything by sending keystrokes and mouse clicks. You can write a mouse or keyboard macro by hand or use the macro recorder.
-Create hotkeys for keyboard, joystick, and mouse. Virtually any key, button, or combination can become a hotkey.
-Expand abbreviations as you type them. For example, typing "btw" can automatically produce "by the way".
-Create custom data-entry forms, user interfaces, and menu bars. See GUI for details.
-Remap keys and buttons on your keyboard, joystick, and mouse.
-Respond to signals from hand-held remote controls via the WinLIRC client script.
-Run existing AutoIt v2 scripts and enhance them with new capabilities.
-Convert any script into an EXE file that can be run on computers that don't have AutoHotkey installed.
-Getting started might be easier than you think. Check out the quick-start tutorial.
