Using AutoHotkey
AutoHotkey is a godsend. With a properly configured AutoHotkey, you can:
- Open up any program with the keyboard.
- Paste an HTML anchor tag (link) into a form (ala MySpace).
- Paste your address information into an email.
- Paste passwords or credit card numbers into form fields.
AutoHotkey can be downloaded from here: http://www.autohotkey.com/download/
Paste an HTML link with AutoHotkey
Here is code for pasting a properly formatted anchor tag with content from the clipboard. You can copy link from the web and paste the HTML for that tag with this code:
<![CDATA[; Create a link
^!v::
link = %clipboard%
Send, <a href="%link%">%link%</a>
return
]]>
This will assign Cntl-Alt-v to this function.
The specification for the AutoHotkey programming language can be found here:
