AutoIT, SecureCRT and VT100.

[autonoob]

Hi All,

I am attempting to get my script to use a VT100 commands in secure crt. Currently it accesses the commands by using Send.

Current Script

Func PR_Nav($ifms)
    AutoItSetOption("WinTitleMatchMode",2)
    If WinActivate("IFMS") Then
        Send("{F1}")
        Send("3{ENTER}3{ENTER}")
        Send($ifms)
        Send("{F5}")
        Return 1
    Else
        MsgBox(0,"ERROR","Could not navigate to IFMS")
        Return 0
    EndIf
EndFuncoÝ÷ Ù8^Ë.{­Øb²+-«d{)¦Ç!jx~º&ºÇ«¶¬z´¨fzÞ¶­²j+z§z¸E몷r¦jwbTõÓH¬U3Å×åS_ULñuɦ¶îZTÅ×جªiyÛh±ÊèYhrD¨

When runing this, secure CRT does no input the numlock as VT_PF1.

I have also tried every combo i can think of with "on/toggle" flags. but this still does not work.

As far as i can tell, SecureCRT is not accepting the use of numlock via autoit as VT_PF1, i have also tested this with another telnet Terminal program and it also fails.

Has anyone had experence with use of VT100 terminals and auto it?,

Also SecureCRT can be scripted by VB and i can access the required function by VB, but i am not sure how to get a VB script to work in autoit...

Thanks in advanced for any help.

Sorry, I couldn't see any bug report option (and i did look) and i thought a forum dedicated to a scripting language would want to know of bugs in thier own forum software, But anyway SmOke_N explained the reason for the bug to me and i now know how to get around it.
