GestureForge turns mouse movements into shortcuts. Hold a trigger button and draw on a transparent desktop overlay with a live trail; release, and the matched binding fires. Plain right-clicking still opens the normal context menu, so nothing you already rely on breaks. Gestures are recognised as strokes in numpad notation — 6 2 4 8 for the cardinals, 9 7 3 1 for diagonals — plus corners and closed clockwise or anticlockwise loops, and there are rocker triggers (hold one button, click another) and wheel triggers (hold and scroll) for things you want instantly. Actions cover launching an app or file with arguments, opening a URL, running a command, sending a hotkey combination or sequence with a live recorder, media and volume keys, and window management including snapping and virtual-desktop switching. Per-application profiles scope a gesture to, say, chrome.exe, and the editor flags conflicts inline and has a Test button so you never save something broken.
