About Clavier+
Clavier+ is a small Windows utility for assigning your own global keyboard shortcuts. A shortcut can start a program, type a piece of text or send a sequence of keystrokes, which makes it useful for repeated phrases and for opening frequently used tools.
It is a native C++ application with its source published on GitHub, and it offers donations rather than a paid tier. It suits Windows users who want simple hotkeys without writing scripts.

- Types stored text and sends keystrokes
