Add emacs key bindings to Microsoft Word (2008)
Since Word 2008 doesn't support VB scripts, the Ctrl+K (delete to end of line) method above doesn't work anymore. Here's a workaround.
The solution is to use Word's "EndOFLineExtend" command, which extends the selection to the end of the line, then delete the selection. Normally, this command has the keyboard shortcut of Shift+End. I'm using that in the Applescript below. So . . . create an Applescript with this code:
...and save it as "Delete to end of line\ck" in your ~/Documents/Microsoft User Data/Word Script Menu Items/ folder. The "\ck" (note that it's a backslash) at the end tells Word to use Ctrl+K for this custom script.Now you have Ctrl+K back in Word 2008. Enjoy.

But can we also figure out a way to get this into a different copy buffer versus deleting it? Such as scrapbook and then pulling it back out with ctrl-y?

Taking a quick look without implementing anything, it seems that one could put in a CopyToScrapbook somehow prior to the deletion in this script and then just use a PasteFromScrapbook for ctrl-y... |
