Keyboard Maestro is a fantastic macro program that I've been happily using (and beta testing) for years and for tons of different things.

I'm so used to using it that it has become almost completely intuitive to me, but reading and answering questions on KM's mailing list, I realized that some things which are obvious to me aren't so to everybody.

So I decided to share some of my experience with KM and compiled this list of tips and tricks.

If you're a developer or a tester who uses to switch between various versions of Mac OS for testing purposes, you might find handy to get GeekTool to display the system version and build number. Here's how I do it:

echo `/usr/libexec/PlistBuddy -c "Print :ProductUserVisibleVersion" /System/Library/CoreServices/SystemVersion.plist` (`/usr/libexec/PlistBuddy -c "Print :ProductBuildVersion" /System/Library/CoreServices/SystemVersion.plist`)

The result is something like this:

10.5.7 (9J61)
