Run script when key is pressed?

[cubancigar]

Hi, I was trying to get scripts to run when one of the keys on the keyboard is hit.

MouseClick ( "left" )

sleep(500)

MouseClick ( "left" )

This one is for emulating a double click, giving the mouse finger an alternative means. I compiled this into an exe and it causes the mouse to double click but how to "tie" a keyboard button to it.

Welcome to the forum.

HotKeySet("+z", "_DC")  ;Shift-z

While 1
    Sleep(100)
WEnd

Func _DC()
    MouseClick("left")
    Sleep(500)
    MouseClick("left")
EndFunc   ;==>_DC

Check out the help file under HotKeySet.

HotKeySet("{NUMPAD0}", "goonce")

HotKeySet("{NUMPAD1}", "goinspace")

HotKeySet("{ESC}", "Terminate")

$going = True

While 1

Sleep(100)

WEnd

Func goonce()

MouseClick("left")

Sleep(500)

MouseClick("left")

EndFunc ;==>goonce

Func goinspace()

$going = True

While 1

MouseClick("left")

Sleep(500)

if not $going then exitloop

MouseClick("left")

Sleep(500)

if not $going then exitloop

WEnd

EndFunc ;==>goinspace

Func Terminate()

$going = False

EndFunc

This one will double click once when keypad 0 is pressed. When keypad1 is hit it will go into a cycle of clicking untill you hit escape which resets it. I love you autoit, wtf have i been doing all these years.

Now hopefully this thing works in linux
