fry128 Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 (edited) Is it possible to have a computer on your internal network send keystrokes? As an example, use autoit on my laptop and make my desktop press certain keys? If so, how would I go about doing this? [Edit] To clarify, I want one computer to mimic the other... If I press a button on my laptop, it would send the same key to my desktop. Edited May 22, 2008 by fry128 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have a script (A) on your laptop and a script ( B ) on you desktop (D).B waits for something from A to tell it what to do and then it uses Send to make the key presses. So it only remains how A and B will communicate. There are examples of TCP server/client scripts around, or UDP would be OK on a local network.

fry128 Posted May 22, 2008 Author Share Posted May 22, 2008 That sounds exactly what I'm looking for. Could you maybe point me to such a script or tell me where to find information on coding one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
