I get an error:

Line 5

ClipPut (".......................................,,-~"`` . . . . . . . . .""`~-,")

ClipPut (".......................................,,-~"^ ERROR

Error: Unable to parse line.

This happens to other ASCII art too. It really is just copy and paste so it should be working 100% of the time. I think it has something to do with the characters in the ClipPut but I really don't know what. Thanks in advance.

I'm pretty sure it's because of the quotes.

""

''

You would need to add another quote in a couple places. It of course would reck the art work.

ClipPut (".......................................,,-~""`` . . . . . . . . .""`~-,")

Is there a way around it? AutoIt must have ways to copy a quote.

Sure, just use ' instead of "" on the outsides... like this. Sorry, I should have pointed this out before... brain shut down from the storm.

ClipPut ('".......................................,,-~"`` . . . . . . . . .""`~-,"')

Or like this

ClipPut ('.......................................,,-~"`` . . . . . . . . .""`~-,')

Double the " inside "" to get a single "

"""" = "

Thanks to both of you. I think I'll keep the double quotes for the clipput and change all my double quotes of the art to single.

Welcome to the forums!

Have you considered storing the art in a separate file and then doing this:

Local $File = 'C:\TheCookieMan.txt'
Local $Art = FileRead($File, FileGetSize($File))
ClipPut($Art)
Send('^v')
