Oh no, his arm! I forgot to escape the character! I'm so sorry little guy!
Honestly, I didn’t think of emoticons in macros, but that makes perfect sense.
I use my powers for shitposting.
Not exactly Macro's but I have several custom key codes because I need them to pass through my KVM HID port so I can still use my keyboard for KVM switching.
Visio:
CAP+ W - Center Window
CAP+ G - Group
CAP+ F - Ungroup
CAP+ R - Right Align
CAP+ L - Left Align
CAP+ C - Center Align
CAP+ B - Bottom Align
CAP+ T - Top Align
CAP+ M - Middle Align
CAP+ V - Vertical Space
CAP+ H - Horizontal Space
Windows:
CAP+ S - Snip tool
Linux:
CAP+ SLK - Rectangular Region in Spectacle
I probably have some more but thats what I can think of off hand.
No true macros right now, but my DIY battlecruiser eight keys that do simple combos: Ctrl Z, Ctrl X, Ctrl C, Ctrl V, Win L, Win D, Win Shift S (Snipping/Screenshot tool), and finally Win Period because I'm a manchild who sometimes likes Emojis. I have another that does Media Play/Pause, and volume stuff is on the knob.
- move up / down 10 lines
- select the next word and copy it
- select the next word and paste over it
- rewrite the previous letter with a different accent ( a sort of tap dance)
I have macros to swap my audio devices. Other than that there's some stuff for specific games but I haven't come up with much that are necessary.

Ooh. That's really good. I didn't realize, but I need that. Thanks!
Yeah it's handy. Also I didn't think to mention it I initially but I also bought a macropad that I'm intending to use along with my drawing tablet (keyboard sits on the keyboard tray and I'm left handed so it's awkward). The macropad mostly does what I want but I don't know enough python to make it behave exactly how I want it to.
