## What it is
A collection of AutoHotkey scripts by Taran (formerly of Linus Media Group) for speeding up video editing workflows, especially in Premiere Pro and Windows Explorer. It also documents multiple methods for setting up a second independent macro keyboard on Windows, including QMK, Interception, and LuaMacros.

## Use cases
- set up a second keyboard as a dedicated macro pad on Windows
- automate repetitive tasks in Premiere Pro with AutoHotkey
- assign macros to F13-F24 super-function keys
- speed up video editing workflow with hotkey scripts
- distinguish input from multiple keyboards in Windows
- learn AutoHotkey for video editing from a tutorial

## When to choose
- you're a Windows video editor wanting to automate Premiere Pro tasks
- you want to build a DIY macro keyboard using QMK or Interception
- you want ready-made AutoHotkey scripts from a professional editor's workflow

## When to avoid
- you're on macOS or Linux (scripts are Windows/AutoHotkey specific)
- you want a polished plug-and-play product rather than scripts to adapt
- you'd rather buy a Stream Deck than tinker with keyboard firmware
