PC-Com Basic

PC-Com offers you an easier and faster alternative to use your PC.

You can use it on your home computer, laptop, or business computer. Instead of double-clicking icons on your desktop, and searching for programs in your Start Menu, you can quickly load anything on your computer or the internet from PC-Com.

PC-Com is a program launcher that lets you open files, folders, and websites by typing keywords. When you want to open something, all you have to do is press a hotkey (semicolon) on your keyboard, type a keyword, and press enter.

For example, typing aol as a keyword will open America Online; typing word as a keyword will open Microsoft Word; typing yahoo.com will open http://www.yahoo.com. As you can see in the picture above, you can just type the first couple letters of a keyword and still access it by pressing enter. There's more to PC-Com than just keywords.

You can open websites (typing google.com will take you to http://www.google.com), and you can open files and folders (example: c:program files). You can also use letter commands to search the internet (example: s:mp3s), look up a word in a dictionary or a thesaurus, find related web sites, and shut down or restart your computer.

PC-Com is only visible when you press a hotkey and type a keyword. The toolbar disappears after you press Enter. This provides even more convenience and work space for you.

In addition to opening anything, PC-Com lets you record macros, giving you the ability to automate your repetitive computer tasks. Recording a macro is like recording something on a video camera. When you start recording, PC-Com will record what you do on your computer until you stop the macro. It will record when you click the mouse, as well as keys that you press on your keyboard.

After you record a macro, you will give it a name and it will be saved as a keyword in PC-Com. You can then type this keyword into PC-Com at any time, and it will play back your mouse clicks and keystrokes automatically. The mouse pointer will move to different parts of your screen and simulate mouse clicks, and keys will appear magically on your screen. It's like a robot doing the work for you
