I use it to launch frequently used applications.  E.g. I&#8217;ve assigned the text &#8220;ftp&#8221; to Filezila, my FTP client.  So now, wherever I am in Windows, whatever application I&#8217;m in I can just type &#8220;ftp&#8221; and hit F12 and Filezilla is launched.<\/p>\n<p>You can also use it for text replacements and text insertions.  E.g. type &#8220;sig&#8221; when you need to insert your signature into an email or usenet or forum post.  And of course you can also have Direct Access run <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mjtnet.com\/macro_scheduler.htm\">Macro Scheduler<\/a> macros.  So you can make text shortcuts that run Macro Scheduler macros whatever application you are working in.<\/p>\n<p>Version 2.0 has a redesigned interface to enhance ease of use; support for inserting rich text; network support for sharing action groups between PCs; confirming commands with delimiter keys such as SPACE and ENTER; and more.<\/p>\n<p>Because Direct Access compliments Macro Scheduler so well we&#8217;ve arranged a special discount for Macro Scheduler customers.  Macro Scheduler users can get 25% off the regular price of Direct Access.  Registered users will find a discount coupon in the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mjtnet.com\/dldregd.htm\">secure download area<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Congratulations to Nagarsoft on a great update to an already superb tool.  <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nagarsoft.com\/\">Check it out<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Version 2.0 of Direct Access, a great text replacement, text shortcut tool, was released by our friends at Nagarsoft today.
