# easymacros

This program is inspired by [**xmacro**](https://github.com/Ortega-Dan/xmacroIncludingDelayCapturing/), however it isn't `xmacro`.

**Note**: This program is for personal use; I will modify it as I deem necessary, but feel free to open issues for suggestions or bug reports. Contributions are welcome!

- [x] Linux x11 (*only tested on `i3wm`*)
- [ ] Linux Wayland (*makes heavy use of X apis, I will only do this if I myself switch to Wayland. I'm open to suggestions how to do it though!*)
- [ ] MacOS (*Might work because of [XQuartz](https://www.xquartz.org/)?*)
- [ ] Windows (*Yeah, I'm not doing that myself. Unless I have to use Windows for anything.*) <!--(gentoolinux-girl): We both know you are not using Windows. xD-->
