install the script so it's accessible from the File->Scripts Menu, then record an action to run such script and give it a shortcut key.

It'll help if you create a new Set to record your action into. That way you can save your Action. Sometimes Illustrator "forgets" the script after restarting, if that happens you can easily Load the action instead of re recording.
