Depending on how technically sophisticated you are and how you use your computer: This app is *essential*. Many things can be done with Autokey. Binds to open selected text in a search engine, binds to open selected text in a text editor, a basic autocorrect implementation. With some patience or some web-surfing, you can create/find scrips that'll make your experience much more efficient!

Sometimes it messes up the names of the individual phrase entries, which can lead to much confusion when you are configuring them. Closing and launching the GUI works in this case. This program is still amazing enough for me to give it a five. This should be basic functionality in every OS imho. Linux Mint 21.3 Cinnamon.

love this program I use a similar version in windows but i think this one is better. Took a minute to figure out what goes where and how to set the quick keys but well worth the extra 5 minutes. works great on Mint 20.2

I have used it on other distros, Ubuntu and Ubuntu Mate. Then it worked fine, well aslong you don't use Wayland as a display server. Great for e-mails and usernames and things like that. Only works with X11. Now on Linux Mint 20.2 it doesn't work at all.
