About

UW's PowerMacros is a Windows program that empowers the user with various niche macros that do very specific, powerful and magic things. It relies on AutoHotkey.

For now, it contains these 5 macros:

• SudoF4: forcefully close the current window via Win + F4, bypassing Alt + F4 hooks (read more here)
• ZenMode: mute everything except the focused window and system sounds via Win + F2
• MaximizeAny: forcefully maximize the current window via Win + F5, even if the maximize button is disabled
• Unified Enter: remap numpad enter to normal enter
• Universal Advance: when ScrollLock is on, remap Right Arrow to Enter so you can advance text in games via >

Installation

You first need to install Rust and AutoHotkey v2.

Then clone PowerMacros:

git clone https://github.com/UnexomWid/PowerMacros

Usage

Just run start.bat from this repo.

cd <path_to_powermacros_repo>

start.bat

That's it. Keep it running in the background.

Customizing

Macros

PowerMacros relies on AutoHotkey. Simply modify the uwpm.ahk file to add/remove/edit macros. See the AHK v2 docs if you're not familiar with the syntax.

ZenMode also relies on the Rust program, which is automatically executed via start.bat. It won't work if you just use the AHK script separately.

Sounds

Create the assets/ dir inside the repo folder (near uwpm.ahk), since that's where the sound files will be stored. Here are the current sounds:

• SudoF4.wav: SudoF4 killed the current window
• Zen_engage.wav: ZenMode was engaged
• Zen_disengage.wav: ZenMode was disengaged
• MaximizeAny.wav: MaximizeAny maximized the current window
• UniversalAdvance_engage.wav: UniversalAdvance was engaged (ScrollLock is now ON)
• UniversalAdvance_disengage.wav: UniversalAdvance was disengaged (ScrollLock is now OFF)
