Radial

Radial is a desktop automation tool that lets you create powerful macros and trigger them instantly with simple mouse or trackpad gestures. Its primary purpose is to turn repetitive, multi-step workflows into single actions executed right at your cursor, reducing context switching and manual input. By overlaying a radial menu interface, it provides quick, visual access to your most-used commands and scripts without cluttering your screen.

Key features include customizable gesture-based triggers, allowing you to assign specific actions or macros to directional swipes or radial segments. Radial supports chaining multiple operations into a single macro, such as opening applications, sending keystrokes, executing shell commands, or manipulating windows. The tool is designed to work across applications, so the same gesture can perform different context-aware actions depending on the active program. Configuration options typically include adjustable menu layouts, nested radial menus for complex workflows, and fine-grained control over sensitivity and activation behavior.
