I know that AutoHotkey can remap shortcuts, so for example you could change the default shortcuts for some application replacing with other keyboard shortcuts.
- But what is the CPU impact for that ? For example on a 3 ghz processor, how much CPU will it use ?

And is it possible to make something this sophisticated ?

For example, Vue - a very sophisticated 3d rendering application, used even by Industrial Light and Magic for Pirates of caribbean.
I am used with the 3ds max shortcuts style. And if I work with other software I customize the shortcuts to be like in 3ds max.
Vue claims that you can customize their shortcuts to be exactly like in 3ds max, but it's not true. When I complained for that in their forum, nobody gave me an answer.

So now, the tricky part : It's not some simple "press Y key" and return to Vue software - the Z key.
It's more than that. For example :

For zooming with the mouse
Press CTRL + ALT + Middle mouse button (and keeping all pressed and moving the mouse for zooming) and make the selected application think you pressed not some keys but you LEFT CLICK with the mouse some GUI button on the selected application.

Sounds complicated. Is this possible ?

Or some more simple example. Press CTRL + ALT + Middle mouse button and make the selected app think you press only the RIGHT MOUSE button.

it depends on if the application uses real controls - you can use ControlClick to click buttons.
