These are sample shortcut-files for the Obsidian plugin Inline Scripts.
The easiest way to use these shortcut-files in your Obsidian vault is to click the "Import Full Library" button, near the top of the plugin settings, beside "Shortcut-files". This will download the full library into your vault, after which point you can disable or remove shortcut-files from the library as you wish.
To use an indiviual shortcut-file from this library in your Obsidian vault, you can copy the raw text of the shortcut-file and paste it into a note in your vault. Then:
- Make sure that the plugin Inline scripts is installed in your vault.
- Open The Inline Scripts plugin settings.
- Go to the first setting: "Shortcut-files".
- Click the "Add file reference" button. This adds a new textfield below the setting.
- Type the address of the vault-note into the new textfield. The textfield will be red until the address is recognized.
- Close the settings and type
;;help;(!!help! on mobile) to review the new shortcuts.
