Automator, as any Mac veteran will know, is one of OS X's best and least heralded features. iKey is more than a little like Automaton an application that enables you to create batch commands and menu items. But there are many things iKey can do that Automator can't and vice versa.rnAt its most simple, iKey lets you attach commands to events. The software has a catalogue of commands built in, organised into categories. For example, you can launch or close a program, open documents, control windows or issue system commands. An event, or Launcher, can be a keyboard shortcut, application event or system event. So, you could create an iKey Shortcut that launches an email client and sends an automated response with a key combination - or that cleans up a designated folder on the shutdown of an application.
