Hi..
so I've got a single, simple problem. I want to convert URLs into tinyurls
(http://tinyurl.com/) for print because they're shorter.
I'm working in InDesign.
Given a URL which is selected, it's very simple to get the tinyurl via curl.
It's very easy to take the selected URL and turn it into a "note" which
won't print.
It's very easy to replace the original URL selection with the tinyurl - but
I don't want to do that, because other people have to check the tinyurl
against the original.
So what I want to do is, given a selected URL
-get its tinurl (can do that already)
-turn the URL into a note (can do that already)
-move the cursor one place to the right or left and paste the tinyurl in
there. (CAN'T FIND ANYTHING IN THE DICTIONARY!)
Seriously: does InDesign have *any* commands for moving the cursor about? I
can't find anything. All I want to do is go one place forward or back.
your help appreciated..
best
Charles
