charon Posted January 25, 2015 Posted January 25, 2015 Is there anyway to capture certain key combinations like if the user types "go" it will replace that text with "stop". I don't want to have to type Ctrl or Alt I just want to type a certain word and it replaces it with certain text. I tried using Hotkeyset but that seems to only capture the first character. When I press "g' it types "stop" instead of capturing "go". The following doesn't work: #include <MsgBoxConstants.au3> ; Press Esc to terminate script, Pause/Break to "pause" Global $fPaused = False HotKeySet("{PAUSE}", "TogglePause") HotKeySet("{ESC}", "Terminate") HotKeySet("go", "stop") HotKeySet("+!d", "ShowMessage") ; Shift-Alt-d While 1 Sleep(100) WEnd Func TogglePause() $fPaused = Not $fPaused While $fPaused Sleep(100) ToolTip('Script is "Paused"', 0, 0) WEnd ToolTip("") EndFunc ;==>TogglePause Func stop() Send("Stop") EndFunc Func Terminate() Exit EndFunc ;==>Terminate Func ShowMessage() MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "", "This is a message.") EndFunc ;==>ShowMessage
