An Adium Xtra for linking any browser's current page
I know Adium can insert links from some browsers by itself, but I just found a script at the Adium Xtras site which offers much more fine-grained control over inserting a link from any browser, with the page name's descriptive title linked nice and clean, instead of the long ugly URL you get from copy/pasting. As you can see, specific commands are included for all the major browsers (and even some not-so-major ones), as well as a catch-all Default Browser command. The ones I can test seem to work pretty well, though I'll admit I don't have any copies of iCab or Netscape lying around. Enjoy.

This is a very nice feature, and is actually integrated as a nice menu bar icon in the Adium 1.0 Betas!

cmd-k does everything I need.
Highlight a text, hit cmd-k and the URL on the clipboard will already appear as the 'default' link text.
So: cmd-l, cmd-c, cmd-tab, "link text", cmd-a, cmd-k, return ;-)

Great tip! Adium scripts are awesome!
