Once in a while a Web page will display a URL in plain text. To open it you have to retype it or copy-and-paste to the address bar. With this hotkey, highlight the URL, press Win-O. and it opens in a new tab. (It's specifically for Firefox because '^t' opens a new tab and places the cursor in the address bar.)

  SetKeyDelay, 500
  Send, ^c^t^v{Enter}
  Return

To each his own.
My preferred method in this case it to select the address and drag'n'drop it in an empty place of the tab bar.
Works well.

Ohh, I like this especially because with a little adjustment it could work in IE, or any other browser, with no need for an "extension." Excellent!
If I'm asking a question about AHK, it's only because I can't find the answer anywhere else. I swear, I looked!

AutoHotKey has saved me at least 8 hours a month of data entry. What has it done for you?
