kboard
Do you hate people as much as I do? Do you find yourself wasting time trying to find the right condescending message in order to get rid of them? Then you need kboard - a keyboard designed specifically to end conversations. Don't waste time with all those other superfluous letters when all you really need is 'k.'. * *NEW* Commands - a powerful VIM-like macro system for your own custom command keys /like this!5dw,i($0!!!!) * Add as many custom keys as you need. * Quickly switch between kboard and your other keyboards * One-click send option for the pinnacle of laziness - no need to even press enter! * Choose from 5 material design color schemes It will literally save you hours of pointless talking! With kboard the world is your oyster: * Add your favourite hashtags * Easily Italicise/bolden things in WhatsApp * More powerful copy/paste automation with Commands * Use to speed up github peer reviews (e.g. thumbs up, +1, LGTM) * Add long names that are awkward to type * Custom text emoji/faces (e.g. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯, ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)) * Automate sweet nothings to your partner COMMANDS (New in v3) Commands is a VIM-like system for adding keys that do special things. For example: /WhatsApp italicise!dw,i(_$0_) /WhatsApp bolden!dw,i(*$0*) /WhatsApp italics!i(__),j /Copy All!yy /Repeat word x4!dw,4p /rly sad!1000i(😥 ) Full list: d=delete previous character dw=delete previous word 3dw=delete previous three words dd=delete all yy=copy all y=copy selection p=paste from clipboard i(text)=output the content of the brackets ($0 gets replaced with the last deleted/copied content) upper(text)=as o, but in upper case lower(text)=as o, but lower case j=move cursor back by a character k=move cursor forward by a character b=move cursor back by a word w=move cursor forward by a word s=trigger a send command
