+Keyboard Maestro includes a command line tool to let you execute macros from the shell command line. The tool is named `keyboardmaestro` and is located within the `Keyboard Maestro.app` application. Assuming the application is installed in the Applications folder, the command line tool will reside at:
-```
+<code>
-/Applications/Keyboard Maestro.app/Contents/MacOS/keyboardmeastro
+/Applications/Keyboard Maestro.app/Contents/MacOS/keyboardmaestro
-```
+</code>
 You may want to create a shell alias for it, or add `/Applications/Keyboard Maestro.app/Contents/MacOS` to your PATH, or you can link to it from `/usr/local/bin` with the command:
-```bash
+<code bash>
-sudo ln -s '/Applications/Keyboard Maestro.app/Contents/MacOS/keyboardmeastro' /usr/local/bin/keyboardmeastro
+sudo ln -s '/Applications/Keyboard Maestro.app/Contents/MacOS/keyboardmaestro' /usr/local/bin/keyboardmaestro
-```
+</code>
 Use `--help` to list the argument options.
-The command can pass a value to the macro (available via the [[token:TriggerValue|%TriggerValue%]] token), and execute the macro asynchronously, or wait for the macro to finish, receiving a result (returned via the [[action:Return_Result|Return Result]] action) which is output the stdout.
