thx loop works fine

Opt("SendKeyDownDelay", 10000)

to let autoit hold a key for 10 secs?

Haven't tested but I assume that this will affect all the {key down} commands in your script.

The Opt function changes the operation of many other AU3's functions. So I don't believe that this is your case, since you can control the delay individually within each command in your script (I don't really think you need an overall setting; I may be wrong though).

In any case try to test a bit by yourself and read the helpfile's references.. What you ask is really obvious in the helpfile..

Check the Opt, SendKeyDelay, and SendKeyDownDelay references for more info.

well i write in crimsoneditor:

Eh.. I don't like Crimson Editor. I tried it once, as my first thing other than notepad, but then I found JdeB's SciTe for Autoit. I highly recommend you use that instead.

Edit: Link if you want
