That's the script that I've made to do my mouse clicking, but I'm wondering how I can make a function so that I can start/stop the script from running at will.

I've just started AutoIT today, so I'm really really new to all of this. Will I have to create a totally separate script, or can I just add some more lines of code onto this one to create a start/stop function. After searching, I have found that it's a HotKeySet Function. I wanted to use F11 to start it and F12 to stop it.

Thanks in advance,

Use it like this.

Global $Paused
HotKeySet("{F11}", "TogglePause")
HotKeySet("{ESC}", "Terminate")

Sleep(0)
; Loop
; Increase total expression by 1
$upgrade = $upgrade + 1
Wend


Func TogglePause()
    $Paused = NOT $Paused
    While $Paused
        sleep(100)
        ToolTip('Script is "Paused"',0,0)
    WEnd
    ToolTip("")
EndFunc


Func Terminate()
    Exit 0
EndFunc

Thank you so much. =]

I just joined this forum and I already love it. AutoIT is the only language that I've tried - and I've tried C# and C++ - that I've liked.

Again,

Thanks.
