WOo!  The workflow that deanishe works perfectly !  Thank you very much, deanishe!   And great code in here too!

Yes, agreed.  I'm just looking for the most simplistic workflow just so that I can have something working.  The workflow can be restricted to just one format to parse.  Doesn't really matter.  Basically, whatever will get this thing working, even if it's one format, one simplistic format - whatever - just as long as it works.

Agreed on complexity increasing with varying timestamp formats.  For this reason, I'm looking to make the workflow as simplistic and easy as possible - even at the cost of flexibility.  Whatever timestamp format is easier to read into a script that then spits out the formatted text I have in my original comment, I'll go with it.  Unless, of course, the timestamp format is something really long to type out like: "Mon, 15 Mar 2021 23:25:30 +0000"

Hello everyone!

I'm want to create a hotkey that will pass through the current selected text and then replace it with other text.  The text that I want to select and copy is a time stamp and then paste that same time in various other timezones.  Basically, I want to select a time stamp and then paste a string that displays that same time in various other time zones. 

For example, imagine that there was some text that stated just "1pm CST".  I want to be able to select that text and when I hit a hotkey, have that text replaced with the following text:

"12pm PST / 1pm CST / 2pm EST".

The text that I would be selecting would always be in CST, if that helps.

Is there a way to do this ?
