I'd like to assign basic tasks to the function keys (or other keys if it's easier) on my MacBook. For example I'd like the following to happen when F1 (or whatever key) is pressed:
- Launch Safari
- Open a new window
- Navigate to some specified site
Another example could be:
- Launch Xcode
- Open some specific project
I've experimented with the Automator for things like re-naming dozens of files in a particular directory but I don't know where to start for the above examples.
