My tasks on the computer very often involve repetitions of commands. Even though the same commands (steps) reveal new information everyday.
Example 1.
Internet -
- check 2 different mailboxes
- two different news sites and
- three blogs depending on the RSS feeds I have received
Can this happen automatically- at one mouse click?
Example 2.
Non-internet based job -
- Start a custom designed commercial tool to do certain tasks
- This job requires repeating the same steps to get different simulation results obviously with small variations in input data.
- Then I copy and paste various texts from the tool to an excel sheet.
- And do further simple math in excel.
- Finally, results are plot
How about a super macro creating software which records the steps across different tools on the computer and creates an executable script based on this recording.
Enhanced feature - to add variables to this script so it may in the end have the capacity to produce an analysis.
Super Macro - to make for/ if-else loops within macros.
It would be brilliant to see an easy GUI based software that does this. With increasing computation capacity would'nt this be handy for the less code-able.
