-===== URL Schemes =====
-==== Editor ====
-Another way you can control Keyboard Maestro Editor is using the "`keyboardmaestro`" URL scheme, which supports the following formats:
-^ Example Editor URL Command ^ Description ^
-| `keyboardmaestro://u=support%40stairways.com/s=ABCDEFGH0123456789` | enter your username/serial number. |
-| `keyboardmaestro://m=Activate%20Application%20Switcher`\\ `keyboardmaestro://m=D2F427A1-51E3-4719-820B-4C25B6FF7329` | edit a specific macro or macro group.\\ You may used either the Macro Name, or UUID. |
-| `keyboardmaestro://q=Activate` | filter macros with this keyword. |

-| `keyboardmaestro://a=Execute` | filter actions with this keyword. |

-==== Triggers ====
-You can trigger a macro (that is Active and Enabled) using the "`kmtrigger`" URL scheme.  The URL uses this format:
-`kmtrigger://macro=<Macro Name or UUID>[&<Trigger Value>]`
-where
-  * `<Macro Name or UUID>` is either the Macro Name, OR, its UUID
-  * `<Trigger Value>` is the _optional_ Trigger Value
-  * `[ ]` are _not_ included.  Used only to show _optional_ parameters
-  * `&` must precede the Trigger Value, if it is provided.
-Note both Macro Name and Trigger Value must be URL encoded.
-You can easily get the Trigger URL by clicking on the "Or by Script" Trigger option, and selecting "Or by URL".
