Customizing menu, prompts, APIs, and hotkey

You can customize prompts and the menu order by doing the following:

Menu

Under Menus and ChatGPT prompts, add a menu by adding this code:

MenuPopup.Add("&8 - Text_To_Appear", Function_To_Execute_When_Selected)

The character next to the "and" sign (&) is the hotkey for that particular menu that, when pressed, activates it.

You can also add a line separator using this code:

MenuPopup.Add()

Prompt

You can add a prompt using this code:

Function_To_Execute_When_Selected(*) {
    ChatGPT_Prompt := "Your prompt here:"
    Status_Message := "Status message that will show while processing the request"
    API_Model := "gpt-4" ; or API_Model := "gpt-3.5-turbo"
    ProcessRequest(ChatGPT_Prompt, Status_Message, API_Model, Retry_Status)
}

APIs

You can edit the API used for each prompt by changing the API_Model under each prompt. Visit this page to explore a selection of available API models.

Hotkey

You can change the activation hotkey under Hotkey. See here for the list of possible hotkeys.
