How to save the count after a script closes

[lolcatz]

I was trying to make an untenanted program activator. 

I was trying to send a activation code but it blocks it. 

It does allow me manually to ctr paste the code in but cant sending (^v) wont work.

 

So i deiced to make a script that every time i press ctr V it copies the next code to clip broad.  For example  i press ctr V one time it sends "A"  Press control V  manually  again then it will send "B" and the next time "C" to keep going trough the list.

My problem is making it to keep the same count every time i close the program.  I cant rly do this because it will just reset $var to 1 every time the script is open.

$var= = 1


If $var = 1 Then

ClipPut ("I am copied to the clipboard") 
$var = $var+1
ElseIf $var = 2 Then
ClipPut ("b")
$var = $var+1
 Else
$var=3 Then
ClipPut ("c")
$var = $var+1
    
EndIf
 

  How would u go about solving this problem?

never mind.

the application blocks any scripts and hot keys. I think i figured out another way to do trick it. .

Hi,

Read about INI File in the help file

[markyrocks]

this seems to work

Global $var = 1
  HotKeySet("^v","hotkey")
while 1
  
  

 Global $a = "section a"
 Global $b = "section b"
 Global $c = "section c"
    WEnd
func hotkey()
   
If $var = 1 Then
MsgBox("","","CTRL + v pressed once")
clipput($a)
$var = $var+1
ElseIf $var = 2 Then
   MsgBox("","","CTRL + v pressed twice")
ClipPut ($b)
$var = $var+1
 
elseif $var=3 Then
MsgBox("","","CTRL + v pressed thrice")
ClipPut ($c)
Exit
$var = $var+1
    
EndIf
 EndFunc

o I find it hard to believe that any program can "block" autoit considering it can just manipulate mouse clicks and keystrokes so to block autoit you'd have to block any method of interacting with the program.

also as to what was said above you can save any data to a variety of different file types

$file = "path/file.txt"
fileopen($file)
filewrite($data & @CRLF)
fileclose($file)

Yeah I the script i write works just fine on notepad command prompt and everything else. But idk it just none of the script works when that window is active. I has to do everything manually. Maybe its the way auto it sends the info. IDK.

Not at all rare - for example, many games have automation-resistent interfaces.

lolcatz,

We do not need to know if that is the case you are facing (read the Forum rules to see why) but it might well be the answer to your difficulties.
