Hi:

This is my first post on this group, as I discovered your software only 
yesterday, but I am already migrating all my data, weblinks, etc, to it. 
Love it.

I found it because I was planning on programming something similar (by far 
more primitive of course), but *luckily* I found it just while I was 
starting with my first steps. What I also mean by this is its a rather 
difficult software to find by non programer users who could also greatly 
benefit from it. Im so glad I found it.

The main reason for me wanting a tool which can track different types of 
information (images, videos, etc), is to make such a program able not only 
to track the information just in the way I like it, but to also operate 
with it avoiding repetitive tasks for me.

I am still studying (and have much more to study yet) Leo, but I think that 
two things can be archieved by integrating it with libraries like pywinauto 
<https://code.google.com/p/pywinauto/>or 
dragonfly<https://code.google.com/p/dragonfly/>
.

- First of all, it could track all the keystrokes of the user, relate it to 
the window, then offer the user possibility to repeat (even complex 
sequences)
- Second, It would be great to have a Leo tab with buttons showing the 
hotkeys related to the current action (IE when the user has the cursor on a 
node, or the edit pane, etc) (or even the current window in front). So when 
the user uses those hotkeys, Leo will track them, so the next scenario 
could happen:

User copyes a link from Leo
User sets an excel file to front
User pastes it in an excel cell and hits down.

If both the user did those through hotkeys, and they were tracked, Leo 
could automatically offer repeat the same action with the next links held 
in the same category.

This is a pretty raw explanation but I hope it makes the point. 
Nevertheless, I will continue to study, research and try to help with those 
features by myself.

Thanks for your software, Im really excited to have found it.
