Html actions

With html actions, you can automatically paste pre-defined texts to your active window and/or the clipboard by pressing the hotkey or by writing a texykey (up to 10 alphanumerical characters starting with a '#') which will then be replaced by your text.

While using the functionalities of the tool, please keep in mind that:

Many applications already implement the Ctrl + Alt + key hot keys, or even disable their repeated use, e.g. Team Foundation tools in Visual Studio, so only the Win + k combination would work well there.
Given the text is pasted in HTML format, this may not work when pasted in controls that do not support HTML, This will however work well in most applications like Visual Studio or web-based tools.

Tip: should you have difficulties with the paste option and specific applicaitons, you could consider copying in the clipboard as well, so you can then paste "manually" using Ctrl V in your application.

In addition, you can use special sequences in your text that will be automatically replaced when the action is executed. Those are:

{0}: will be replaced by your user name, taken from your LDAP Active Directory if available there, or simply from your OS login name otherwise.
{1}: will be replaced by the current date, in the textual format e.g. December 31, 2008.
