Using the ` with key presses


Recommended Posts

Here's the code I'm currently using:

Global $`

Run("notepad.exe")

HotKeySet("`", "`")

While 1

MouseGetPos()

sleep(30)

WEnd

Func ="`" ()

Send("/give user")

EndFunc

However each time I run the code I get errors, is there a different way to point to the ` key?

Or if you have better code let me know I'd love to learn more!

Try this:

Run("notepad.exe")
HotKeySet("`", "a_meaningful_function_name")
HotKeySet("{ESC}", "_exit")
While 1
    MouseGetPos()
    Sleep(30)
WEnd

Func a_meaningful_function_name()
    Send("/give user")
EndFunc   ;==>a_meaningful_function_name

Func _exit()
    Exit
EndFunc

You can only use alphanumeric characters for variable and function names with very few exceptions (such as the underscore). Also, you don't use = in a function name or header.

If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.

I hereby grant any person the right to use any code I post, that I am the original author of, on the autoitscript.com forums, unless I've specifically stated otherwise in the code or the thread post. If you do use my code all I ask, as a courtesy, is to make note of where you got it from.
