Excellent software!

It would be handy to have an instantaneous way to disable the app. E.g. by pressing some combo like ctrl+alt+f12 or something.

This will help macros and similar to dodge the chatter detection.

thank you. I was about to request the same thing, if possible to add a global hotkey to enable/disable the app. Unfortunately it conflicts with my Autohotkey scripts, and I have to manually enable/disable it whenever I use them.

Added for release 1.15,

This is initially implemented as requiring a direct config file edit (config.txt). You can add a line like: hotkey_disable: control+alt+f12 while the program is closed, then open it, and it should work as intended.
See the readme for more configuration detail.

You can set enable, disable, or toggle as preferred to whatever key combo you want.

For AutoHotKey scripts, use hotkey_tempdisable: before and hotkey_tempenable: active. This has the advantage of not altering main application state, so if you have the blocker intentionally disabled, it will not accidentally reactivate it.
