Keyboard Shortcut - Open Link in a New Tab while Surfing
#1
Lightbulb 
Are you looking for a way to quickly open links in new tabs while surfing? The following script will let you do just that without even having to click on your mouse. Simply hover your mouse over a link and use a keyboard shortcut. A new tab will be opened in the web browser, and the view will be switched to the new tab (the new tab will become active). It is the equivalent of holding down Ctrl+Shift while clicking the left mouse button OR right-clicking the link and selecting “Open link in new tab”.

Need help creating a keyboard shortcut with ShortKeeper using the following AutoHotkey code? This 5-minute tutorial will help!
SendInput {ctrl down}{shift down}
Sleep 100
Click
Sleep 100
SendInput {shift up}{ctrl up}

This script was last tested on March 14, 2018 with Internet Explorer (IE), Firefox, and Chrome.
Enterpad: For those who need more than a few shortcuts.
