Make Windows PC's shortcut act like macOS (Mac OS X)

With this AutoHotKey script, you can use most macOS style shortcuts (eg, cmd+c, cmd+v, ..) on Windows with a standard PC keyboard.

Note that
- You should disable the

shotcut fromControl PanelClock, Language, and RegionLanguageAdvanced settings > Change lanugage bar hot keys
because it conflicts withcmd + shift + ↑ / ↓ / ← / →
(select text between cursor and top / bottom / beginning of line / end of line) - you shouldn't change the modifier keys mapping with keyboard DIP. This script assumes you use a standard PC keyboard layout, and wish to use shortcuts as if it was a mac keyboard layout.
Hotkey Auto Clicker
- AutoHotkey provides a simple, flexible syntax allowing you to focus more on the task at hand rather than every single little technicality. It supports not only the popular imperative-procedural paradigm, but also object-oriented and command-based programming.
- I use Kantu's desktop automation as 'AutoHotkey for Mac' - even so both tools are quite different. Kantu's visual approach is easier to use, but not as powerful as Ahk on windows. Kantu is open-source, too. – Jim Grigoryan Mar 26 '19 at 14:32.
