[QUOTE="zigs16, post: 1159443, member: 183748"] Figured it out with the help of a few different sources. Figured I'd explain it for anyone else out there who might want help. First I had to make a workflow in automator: 1. Get specified text - "my text" 2. Copy to clipboard 3. Run applescript: on run {input, parameters} tell application "Google Chrome" activate tell application "System Events" keystroke "v" using command down end tell return input end tell end run Then I saved it as "run x" and added it to my keyboard shortcuts. Small delay, but that's understandable because it has to run the process. If theres anything more efficient than what I did, please let me know, but this works fine for me. [/QUOTE]
