Tokens

**This is an old revision of the document!**

Keyboard Maestro has a variety of text tokens. Text Tokens allow you to add information to text fields. You can insert text tokens into a field using the Insert Token popup near the field. Most fields that contain text (ie, not just numbers) can include text tokens (the main exceptions being scripts and the Select Menu item action which has its own facilities).

Text token fields also process %NN% or %NNNN% as arbitrary hex unicode characters (eg %41% is an A), and (except for regular expression fields) process backslashed characters \a,\b,\e,\f,\t,\r,\n (bell,backspace,escape,form feed,tab,return,line feed).

To include a percent in your text, simply double the percent (%%). To include a backslash \ in your text, double the backslash (\\).

Some available text tokens include:
