A downloadable script

Are you tired of playing mouse click roulette every time you want to highlight a single word? Do you find yourself hammering your left mouse button like a caffeinated woodpecker only for the cursor to move three pixels to the right and highlight absolutely nothing?

Sucks to suck.

WordSelect3000 (officially registered as WordGrab mk.1 for legal reasons that's a joke) is the cutting-edge high-octane solution to the grueling physical labor of clicking your mouse twice. Using the arcane power of AutoHotkey, this script turns your Ctrl + Left Click into something fun I assume, if you have no sex life.

Disclaimer:

WordSelect3000™ is not a real registered trademark, don't be stupid like me this was just for dramatic effect. AutoHotkey script was assisted and cleaned with self-hosted LLM.

Install instructions

  1. Install AutoHotkey (v2): If you don't have this, the script is just a useless text file. 
  2. Download the .ahk file.
  3. Double-click the script to run it. A little "H" icon will appear in your system tray. Don't fear it, be aware of it.
  4. Find a word. Any word. Hold Ctrl. Click it once.
  5. The word is selected. Marvel at the milliseconds you’ve reclaimed from the void.
  6. Fucking... work, then. Stop procrastinating.
