Simple, effective tool to hold down one or two keys with a single hotkey, instead of keeping them pressed yourself. Save each combination as a preset with your macro and load it back whenever you need it.
New in 0.4: pick presets from a list instead of typing their names. Repeat mode turns Nova into an auto key presser: it taps your keys over and over at a gap you set, for tasks that want repeated presses rather than a held key. An optional auto-release stops the keys after a time you choose. Mode, gap and time are saved per preset.
Version 0.3 fixed saved presets not activating their hotkey, keys staying held after the app closed, settings and presets being lost when the app could not write to its own folder, and crashes when no sound device was available. Your settings and presets live in your user folder and carry over automatically.
For Windows (64-bit). Free and open source (Python, MIT license). Source code is available in the Files tab. Feedback appreciated.
