Description: Stairways Software today released Keyboard Maestro
version 3.3 adding a Status Menu and Status Menu triggered macros,
enable/disable for actions, Fast User Switch action,
Cut/Copy/Paste/Duplicate for macros, triggers and actions, and
optionally persistent clipboard history.

Perth, Western Australia - 15 July 2008 - Stairways Software Pty Ltd
is pleased to announce Keyboard Maestro 3.3, the new version of its
powerful productivity enhancer for Mac OS X.

This release adds a Status Menu and Status Menu triggered macros, so
that macros can be triggered by selecting from a global status menu.

In this release, actions can now be individually enabled and
disabled, making it easier to work on complex macros.

It also adds a Fast User Switch action allowing you to quickly change
to a specified user.

This version enables Cut, Copy, Paste and Duplicate for macros,
triggers and actions, and can optionally preserve your clipboard
history across logins.

A number of other enhancements and bug fixes as documented below are
also included.

Using Keyboard Maestro's macros you can control and enhance
applications; control windows or menus; insert text; open documents,
applications or URLs; execute scripts; control the system or iTunes;
and more, all with the touch of a key, click of the mouse,
periodically or at specific times, when an application is launched or
running, or even over the Internet using Keyboard Maestro's built in
web server.

Using Keyboard Maestro's Program Switcher and Window Switcher you can
cycle through applications or windows, closing, hiding, launching,
and more. Keyboard Maestro can help you regain control of your
crowded screen by letting you close or hide multiple windows or
applications.

Using Keyboard Maestro's Clipboard Switcher, you can select from a
number of named clipboards, storing information away for later
retrieval. Store the details you are working on and access them by
name again and again.

Using Keyboard Maestro's Clipboard History Switcher, you can access
past clipboards, so you will never lose your clipboard again. It
also makes it easy to copy and paste multiple items such as username
and password or serial number without having to switch back and
forth between applications for each item.
