How to pause a script?

[Kaze]

I need a way to pause and unpause a simple script like this:

HotKeySet("{PAUSE}", "EndScript")
While 1
ControlSend ("MyProcess", "", "", "{2}")
Sleep(Int(Random(75,105)))
WEnd

; End
Func EndScript()
Exit
EndFunc

by using hotkeys.

J and/or H would be prefereable.

Thank you, i actually have NO idea!

maybe

Global $Paused
HotKeySet("j", "TogglePause")
HotKeySet("{PAUSE}", "EndScript")

While 1
    ControlSend("MyProcess", "", "", "{2}")
    Sleep(Int(Random(75, 105)))
WEnd

Func TogglePause()
    $Paused = Not $Paused
    While $Paused
        Sleep(100)
        ToolTip('Script is "Paused"', 0, 0)
    WEnd
    ToolTip("")
EndFunc  ;==>TogglePause


Func EndScript()
    Exit
EndFunc  ;==>EndScript

PAUSE WAS STRAIGHT FROM HELP

@ Valuater arent u missing a { in the hot key ?

Global $Paused

HotKeySet("J}", "TogglePause")

Func TogglePause()

$Paused = NOT $Paused

While $Paused

sleep(100)

ToolTip('Script is "Paused"',0,0)

WEnd

ToolTip("")

EndFunc
