Zen Key
You must read the disclaimer before downloading.
Using keystrokes that work no matter what program you are in, you can do actions like launch a program or bring it back into focus; open a document, folder or Internet resource; perform an Internet search; minimize or maximize a window; issue a Media command. You can add any program, add or alter any menu, and assign any keystroke to perform any action.
Although not as powerfull as AutoHotkey its menu and wizard driven interface makes it simpler to use for those not into programming and scripting based systems.
From the Web Site
Zenkey is comprised of a series of menus, each item of which performs an "action". You can "fire" these actions by clicking on the item, or pressing any key-combination you choose. Using these actions, you can:
Open a program or file
These actions launch a program or open a document (with its associated application). If you launch a a program that is already running, you can choose whether this program should be brought to the foreground, or whether ZenKEY should launch a new instance of it. You can also choose to launch programs automatically on ZenKEY startup.
