Help with HotKeySet and toggling

[zanthal]

I'm trying to get a very simple endlessly looping action going that I can toggle paused and toggle unpaused, and terminate altogether, using hotkeys. As I barely know what I'm doing I started with the snippet example in the help file and this is my script below:

Global $Paused
HotKeySet("{^z}", "TogglePause")
HotKeySet("{^x}", "Terminate")
;;;; Body of program would go here ;;;;
While 1
   
Send ("^8")
Sleep (10000)

WEnd
;;;;;;;;
Func TogglePause()
    $Paused = NOT $Paused
    While $Paused
        sleep(100)
    WEnd
EndFunc
Func Terminate()
    Exit 0
EndFunc

As this is, the loop starts when I execute the script, and I can use CTRL-z to pause the script, but it doesn't unpause, and it's pretty much beyond me as to why.

Thanks for any pointers you might have

HotKeySet("^z", "TogglePause") ; here

HotKeySet("^x", "Terminate") ;and here

Thanks for the reply but I don't know what you mean.

Look at the differences between them. then change what you have for those above.

I must have been blinded, thanks for the help.
