AutoHotInterception (AHI) allows you to execute AutoHotkey code in response to events from a specific keyboard or mouse, whilst (optionally) blocking the native functionality (i.e. stopping Windows from seeing that keyboard or mouse event). In other words, you can use a key on a second (or third, or fourth...) keyboard to trigger AHK code, and that key will not be seen by applications. You can use the same key on multiple keyboards for individual actions. Keyboard Keys, Mouse Buttons and Mouse movement (Both Relative and Absolute modes) are supported.

AHI uses the Interception driver by Francisco Lopez

Ah. My rsi is creeping back. Too much careless typing in this week. Gotta be super careful. One thing about rsi is that, it is not necessary just too much typing, but too much mindless typing. Meaning, u r not paying attention to proper form or rsi.

Now switching back to this custome num layout. Efficient Layout for Numbers was trying to use normal about 2 weeks ago, thinking, i got too much remap. The problem was, on diff comp, diff keyboard, too confusing and too much to manage. especially when on a tablet. the number remap makes the touch screen keyboard unusable. it doesn't update. But now, switch it back. When typing chinese, or when using lots numbers, the efficiency outweight the remap inconvenience .
