CLUSTER KEYBOARD-MACOS-SHORTCUTS · 35 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2026-08-13

macOS Windows-style remapping tools

This cluster consists of macOS menu-bar utilities that remap keyboard shortcuts, mouse buttons, scrolling, and occasionally window management to mimic the Windows experience for Mac users. The cluster's dated history is too thin to read a shape from — it predates the index or its members are undated. Among tracked members, WinMice holds the highest activity signal with 116 stars, followed by FingerChord.app at 7 and wandful at 3.

ENTRY TIMELINE

APR 2025OCT 2026

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
