Help for automating some process...

[Guest YawAKooL]

Hello!

I'm totally new to any programming language, AutoIt! is my first one.

I want to do the following:

First wait 5 seconds.

Then press and hold down LCTRL for 5 seconds.

Press and hold down LEFT for 3 seconds.

Press and hold down LCTRL for 5 seconds.

Wait 2 seconds and then...

Press and hold down LCTRL for 5 seconds.

THen again LEFT for 3 seconds.

This for 10 minutes, then...

Press DEL 4 times for 300ms each.

Then again begin with the first command (LCTRL for 5 sec).

And that in an infinite loop, until I press "ESC" to stop it.

I think thats a good beginning to learn all important to me options. But im stuck, I just can't figure some things out. Thats what I have by now:

Opt("SendKeyDownDelay", 1)

Opt("SendKeyDelay", 500)

Sleep(5000)

Send ("{LCTRL down}")

Sleep(5000)

Send ("{LCTRL up}")

But that already doesn't work! It just presses LCTRL 1 time and stops. Please help! I'm frustrated!
