Use a hotkey to send the same key as the hotkey without triggering itself?

[GarGar]

I'm trying to make a macro that will spam the 1 key as long as I'm holding it down (as in repeatedly press and release until I release the hotkey.) But what it does is do a loop of the hotkey triggering itself which does absolutely nothing. I'm wondering if there's a way to work around this somehow?

Another example is if I'm trying to make the hotkey "h" send the string "hello", if I do this it inputs 'ello' and triggers itself, which inputs 'ello' again and continues until I terminate it.

Here's the code I'm working with

Global $Paused
HotKeySet("{END}", "Terminate")
HotKeySet("1", "one")

While 1
WEnd

Func Terminate()
    Exit 0
EndFunc

Func one()
    While 1
        Send("1")
        sleep(2)
    WEnd
EndFunc

I'll try to be reasonable, I haven't worked with AutoIt much.

Oops, first try led me to a 404 so I tried again, but it submitted 2 topics, can someone delete/lock please?
