Provide Macros that re-play a set of pre-recorded actions with a single keypress

Tools like macros enable the user to perform multiple actions with a single click or key press. A series of actions can be recorded once, then played back whenever necessary. For a person with very limited mobility, this automation can greatly speed up common tasks, from typing to modifying system settings.

People with certain cognitive disabilities may have difficulty remembering or completing complex actions, so one-click automations for these tasks may increase independence and efficiency.

By reducing the number of necessary keypresses, automated tasks may allow people with physical disabilities to use computers more easily and with less fatigue.
