I submitted autohotkey to dsq's tip line last week (I don't know if this was before or after it was featured on lifehacker, but I laughed when I saw it on there a couple of days ago). If there's something better than autohotkey, I'm definitely excited to try it out. I installed AutoIt, but as is common with more powerful applications, I've been working for about 45 minutes now and still don't have a hotkey. The help file doesn't mention too much about it, and even the example scripts listed on the forum are throwing errors.

Shame on AutoHotKey for their GPL squirlyness, but for someone who only wants custom system-wide hotkeys, I still say it's a better choice.
