Give Instapaper A Handy Keyboard Shortcut

Lifehacker favourite Instapaper is a great way to keep track of stuff you find online and want to read later. Reader Chris Jones made it even more convenient with a simple AutoHotkey script to add a useful keyboard shortcut.

If you like Instapaper, but don’t want to have the bookmark bar in your browser cluttering the screen, here’s a little AutoHotKey script which uses the Windows-P key combination to send the current page to Instapaper. Here’s what to do:

Install Instapaper by dragging the Instapaper bookmarklet onto the bookmarks bar.

Go to the browser’s bookmark manager and copy the Javascript code from the Instapaper bookmarklet.

Create an Autohotkey script and paste the Javascript where indicated:

#p::
{send !d
send {Raw} paste javascript here
send {Enter}
}
return

Thanks Chris!
