You can get the new version at keymando.com Let me know if youve already bought it through the App Store and Ill get you a new license.

An alternative is KeyRemap4MacBook which is much superior in terms of key remapping capabilities, but lacks a scripting language.

Personally however I have been able to do with it many of the things I did with AutoHotkey, so its worth exploring, though your mileage may vary).

The top result there is Project SIKULI which looks pretty similar to AHK in terms of features but with a different scripting language.

Will IronAHK be able to do this I will look into those alternatives that you listed thank you.

Keyboard Maestro seems a popular option with some scripting support (I have not tried it myself though).

For macOS, theres no equivalent of AutoHotKey if youre looking for script-based solution.

That said, if you need to remap keyboard keys on macOS, you can do it with a free, open source app called Karabiner-Elements.

Once installed, run the app and go to the Simple Modifications tab.

Click the Add Item button at the bottom and open the From key dropdown.

Select the one you want to remap and then open the To key dropdown.

From this dropdown, select which key should be executed when you tap the key youre remapping.

Any time you want to reset the key back to normal, click the Remove button next to it.

Out of the box, you cannot change how these keys work but Karabiner-Elements can.

If you need the function keys to act primarily as function keys and not control brightness, sound, etc., enable the Use all F1, F2 etc.

In order to use them to change the volume or brightness, you will have to tap and hold the Fn key when you press a function key.

Karabiner-Elements doesnt modify the core keyboard functionality so, on your boot screen where the app isnt running, it will not be able to modify any key.

The modifications will only take effect once youve booted to your desktop and run the app.

Do you mean that the effects will only take place if you reboot.
