This is a question ?

Hi @ComplexPoint , good to chime in.
Not a question.

but to upload about 10 macros re: What TTL-URL Macro for what Browser?

How to position it in the correct category?

for the category: Web Page (URL) & Web Browsers

It shouldn’t be in the category after “Windows…” the

there are about 9 more macros to come:

I have to ask...

Why are you setting a Named Clipboard, never using it, then styling the System Clipboard?

What's the advantage of using a (relatively slow) AppleScript over just getting Tokens?

TTL & URL of Safari v2.kmmacros (2.8 KB)

I'm not saying your macro is wrong -- it works, so it can't be! -- just that it would be worth explaining the reasons for those unexpected/non-standard steps.

What's the advantage of using a (relatively slow) AppleScript over just getting Tokens?

Well, it’s because (the real) Christopher Stone explained AppleScript would be faster.

QUESTION
But I still don’t know _how to place the macros into the correct category._
I upload the macro (as done here) to the Macro Library and then create a LINK in the category ”Browsers…” ?

Here is the updated version:
