Can anyone tell me how to make a script that presses any button forever?

I just started and i would like to learn how to use AutoIt..

Thank you

I'd like to help you.

There are some function which you can look up in the Help:

The While-Loop

The Send() Function

And The Sleep() Function

Try it... write some code. post it here, and together we will reach your goal

EDIT: If you want to click a GUI-Button (like an OK-Button) then lookup the ControlClick() Function

This is basically what he said..

While 1
   Send("Helge is so cooool !")
   Sleep(5000)
WEnd

; Loop start
; Sends text
; Wait for 5 seconds
; Loop end (and go to start again)

Look in the helpfile for more help on the parts you don't understand.

Exactly... I always what the one which needs help, to figure it out by himself. at least a bit. so the one learns how to consult the help file. posts code, and then we can develop... English is no programming language

And sorry, no MSN here at work allowed...

Thanks a lot!

I'm going to try this as soon as I get home!

So, It will be something like this?

CODEWhile 1
   Send("{ALT}")
   Sleep(5000)
WEnd

; Loop start
; Sends text
; Wait for 5 seconds
; Loop end (and go to start again)

CODEWhile 1
   Send("{ALT}")
   Sleep(5000)
WEnd

Without the "CODE" before the While 1

Basically, I just do like

While 1=1
Send("{Enter}")
Wend

Replace Enter with whatever keystroke you want. Also, those ";text"'s are simply to show you what it's doing, it doesn't affect the code whatsoever.

Also, the "Sleep(X)" is just to make a pause before the next key press. Leave it out to press it really fast. Make it a few hundred for a short pause, and a few thousand, for a several second pause inbetween each keypress.

well, maybe i'm different from the other people here, but when i read the first post, and he said "hold enter forever", i figured he meant that enter be held down forever...

Well anyways, with the current code u have, u just hit alt a bazillion times until u stop the script.

If u want it to hold the alt key down, then u could perhaps take a look at the SendKeyDownDelay option...
