+Keyboard Maestro includes built in support for syncing you macros.
+First, **all except the first Mac will have their macros entirely replaced**, so if you have different macros on each Mac you should export any unique macros for latter import after you have set up syncing.
 * On the first Mac, select Start Syncing from the File menu, select Create New, and save your macros to your Dropbox (or other) folder.

 As long as you don't make changes on two Macs faster than Dropbox syncs you will not get any conflicts, but if you do, Dropbox will save a conflict file and one or other change will be lost.  You will probably need to periodically delete any conflict files Dropbox generates.
+Note: Only your macros are synced. None of your preferences, clipboards or variables are synced.
