I quickly knew the reset sequences on those things.

Like, ctrl-alt-SuspndMacro?

I would be hard-pressed to get by on my work computer without my Gateway AnyKey keyboard.

I have 29 different keys programmed with macros, some of them pretty extensive (see below) and it would be an unusual week where I didn't use each and every one of them multiple times. Some will be used 20, maybe 30 times per day. Gateway technical support once told me that I was the only person that had ever complained to them that the maximum storage of 1024 total keystrokes as macros wasn't enough.

I did an unscientific estimate one time and I think I came up with an average of about 3500 keystrokes generated by my macros each day.

Here is a sample of just one of the macros that some days will get used as many as 10--12 times:

(I put periods in place of the carriage-return-only lines; and there are escape-key entries that don't show at all.)

And of course anybody familiar Wicks Broadcast Solutions radio traffic management software will immediately recognize this macro as setting up the default template for Total Audience Plan commercial distribution, so there is no need to explain it. Right?
