KEYTEXT 2000
If your browser does ask if you want it to remember this password - and if you don't - you could add the
following:
{Wait 10.0 "AutoComplete"}{Click "No"}
immediately after {Return} in the macro above.
The above method assumes that once you have seen the KeyText message you will check your message, and
then disconnect from the Internet. If you want KeyText to disconnect Dial-Up Networking, this is a little more
tricky. The Windows 98 help file states that to disconnect, "Right-click the icon on the taskbar, and then click
Disconnect". You can do this with KeyText too - on the assumption that the icon will be consistently placed on
the taskbar. Use the Insert Field Wizard
option to set up a right mouse-click on the target icon, and
immediately after the resulting closing } type a d. KeyText will simulate the mouse click and press the d - the
underlined letter for disconnect.
If you want this script to run at set intervals, say every 30 minutes, set a Schedule for the item by clicking the
button and selecting "Start text item x: Minutes". Choose 30 minutes, and OK the schedule. Within a few
seconds KeyText will run the script, and will time the next run for 30 minutes after the item is complete - that is,
when you press the OK button on the "E-mail check!" message. Or, if the item failed, say because your computer
could not connect to the Internet, 30 minutes after it failed.
Now that you have a personal password stored in KeyText, you might want to password protect your KeyText data file.
Use KeyText to start a new e-mail message
There are three ways of doing this - assuming you have access to the Internet and your system recognizes the "mailto"
prefix.
Method 1: Use KeyText's Smart Select feature! Set up a KeyText field with:
{Run "mailto:{Selection}"}
and have it set to Action: Macro , and with a hotkey of, say, Ctrl-Shift E, then if you select
(highlight) an e-mail address in any application and press Ctrl-Shift E, your e-mail client will start with a new email ready to that address.
Method 2: Choose a suitable item in the Edit text items window, and type "mailto:" plus the e-mail address, for
example:
mailto:[email protected]
Click the
button on the toolbar, and select a hotkey, if you wish, by clicking the
the box to the right of it and pressing the key combination you require.
button, then clicking
Method 3: Choose a suitable item in the Edit text items window, click
; click the
button on the wizard
and select Next; click the bottom button on the resulting dialog and choose Next again. Add the e-mail address to
the mailto: already there and select Finish. Click the
required.
button to set the action to macro, and select a hotkey if
Once either of these methods has been used, if you select the KeyText item, or press a hotkey associated with it, your email program will be launched (if not already running) with a new message ready.
Automate Start menu functions
If you want to automate a function on the Start menu, such as shutting down Windows, make a KeyText item (set to
Macro) which begins with {Win} which presses the Windows logo key on your keyboard - even if you don't have one!
Work out what sequence of keypresses - underlined letters, cursor keys and [Return] - can be used to run the function, and
enter it in the KeyText item.
For example, the following script, in English version of Windows NT, will automate shutting down the
computer:
{Win}us{Click "Yes"}
