How does this work?
It doesn't work.

@ILikeCheating Maybe an older version of google docs?
You did need the code pretty print plugin, which is now blocked.
Maybe using code-blocks it'll work? https://workspace.google.com/marketplace/app/code_blocks/100740430168

This script works by navigating the tool menu and auto selecting format code, so adapt it for whatever menu options you have

From the shortcut list

    press "keydown Alt_R" x;
    press "key b";

Should now be

    press "keydown Alt_R" x;
    press "key n";

to pop the addons menu

Hi! So im a lead general and co-owner of this major google doc called glicthquake, and we are currently at war against glitch wires, another doc, im wondering what this hack does, and if it gives ownership/edit on documents.

No, but you could extend it to do that. This just applied a plugin for formatting code in a Google doc. I made it when I went through Google interviews (code questions in a doc are pretty dumb)

Ty, but the war is over. LOL

is this supposed to be a bookmarklet?

It's a bash script to emulate keypresses and run a google docs plugin on a certain key strokes
