A keyboard logging and presentation utility for presentations, screencasts, and to help you become a better keyboard user.

You can install the latest version of Carnac via Chocolatey:

cinst carnac

Alternatively, you can grab the latest zip file from here, unpack it and run Setup.exe.

Note: Carnac requires .NET 4.5.2 to work - you can install that from here if you don't have it already.

We use Squirrel.Windows to update your carnac application.

The application will check for updates in the background, if a new version has been released, it will automatically install the new version and once you restart carnac you will be up-to-date.

Enabling silent mode

If you want to stop Carnac from recording certain key strokes, you can enter silent mode by pressing Ctrl+Alt+P. To exit silent mode you simply press Ctrl+Alt+P again.
