Can someone direct me to a simple tutorial in English how to create a simple script that puts a string of words into a window. And what it takes to assign it to a hotkey.

Ability to insert special keys would be a plus, like Tab, Alt+w etc.

I really need this program to work.

Thanks so much

In the gui, open sample script below... which should give you something to start with...

as for assigning to a hot key, this will vary by system, but the 'action' on my kubuntu system would be:
actexec ~/Scripts/actiona_sample_InsertText.ascr

If you run this on a blank 'notepad' type of page/app it will:
- provide a list of text to choose from
- enter chosen item on the page/app
- go to 'home' on current line
- do a <shift><end>, <ctrl-c> (copy), <down>
- and paste the copied text

HTH,
