    It's working with mac OS X 10.5.5.

    It's the first app that is capable to do something with my function Key F13 to F19.

    Good Soft.

    HotApp CommentaryIf it wasn't dead before, it is now... - Version: 1.9.2u, 11/30/2008 04:23AM PST

    Trusoft seems to be defunct; the site is down and the email address in unreachable. That means the end of HotApp, which is a pity. I have used it for a long time but its functionality is now pretty compromised; I am finding that 'dynamic paste' only works if you go to the HotApp preference pane first! I am going over to Typinator instead although this is only good for the text expansions and furthermore requires the use of abbreviations rather than hot keys. But it is fast and reliable.

    I wrote the developer, and got this reply:

    "we're still here... but we're busy doing a lot of consulting work and so spend less time updating the site... HotApp is compatible with 10.5 :-)"
