QuickPop does just two things, but was designed to do them very well. This program performs functions that will benefit any Mac user and is extremely simple to set up and use.
The first is to allow you to assign “Hotkeys” to up to fifty (50) applications, documents, Apple Menu Items, control panels, FKEYs, monitor depth (colors) or speaker volume settings. When the “Hotkeys” are pressed from within most any application, the selected item will instantly launch (or change speaker or monitor settings).
The second is to allow you to have a menu pop up anywhere on the screen when you hold a key (option, command, control or shift in any combination) and click and hold down the mouse button. From this pop-up menu you can launch your favorite documents, applications, control panels, FKEYs, Apple Menu Items, change monitor depth (colors) settings, change the speaker level or switch to any other running application.
New Features in version 2.0:
Can now use up to 50 “HotKeys”. Users can now set up category folders in the QuickPop Folder for much better organization! Can now set “HotKeys” to switch between running applications (previous, next or by showing a list to choose from). Payment can now be made with VISA & MasterCard via email, FAX or standard mail. Much better documentation and a new registration application to make registering much easier.
Some uses for QuickPop:
* Change monitor settings (for those games that require
different monitor settings) and assign a single key to
instantly switch to 16 colors, 256 colors or Black &
white, whatever you need!
* Have a key (or keys) to turn the speaker off or to a
different level, no need to go to the Sound control panel
anymore!
* Launch your favorite application, document, control
panel, FKEY or Apple menu item at the touch of a key
(or keys).
* Keep your favorite FKEYs in files rather than installing
them in the System file. Place aliases of the FKEY files
in the QuickPop Folder and you can launch the FKEYs
with any key(s) you set up!

This is Shareware
This is shareware, an honor system which allows you to try it before you buy. You have 30 days to try QuickPop. I've put lots of time and effort into creating this utility. When you register you will receive a registration number (via U.S. mail or e-mail if you have an e-mail address) that will stop the “Please Register” message each time you open the QuickPop control panel. If you use this, please send in the requested registration fee of $10 for each copy (discounts available for 10 or more copies). Thank you for your support.

If you don't usually read manuals, at least read the “Introduction” and the “How to Register” sections to learn how to do things that would not be obvious, thank you.
