    How do I paste to the shoutbox or whatever textbox i want using hotkeys?

    For example this textbox here: http://snpr.cm/FKzX9l.png
    without clicking and selecting it. Just use a key ex: F5 to paste the text i copied to this any textbox or shoutbox?

    Your application is obviously unable to read your mind, so it has to know what text box it's supposed to be inserting text into. If the text box isn't selected then you will have had to have written code in the app so it knows what text box to look for. If it's supposed to be able to insert into any text box then that's pretty much impossible. How do you propose to identify the text box to your app?
