Is it possible to bind macros to keyboard keys?

Title, basically. Can I bind macros to keys? That would probably be the biggest QOL improvement for me that I can think of at the moment.

To some degree. The Aaron has a  bookmarklet that will map your token action row to  Alt-1 through Alt-0. More powerful but more involved is my method  here . My method requires you to have key-mapping abilities in your OS. Both of these methods use javascript bookmarklets. They should work on Chrome, but will not work on Firefox Quantum. I don't know about other browsers.

While I didn't actually directly use any of these solutions (still using the javascript code), in my research on how to make them work, I eventually reached a Chrome extension called "Shortkeys". It allows me to bind the javascript code to a key and only have that shortcut work on certain websites (like roll20).

Very nice. I'll look into that. It might be worth adding to the Stupid Trick.
