 Forum: Support   Topic: Timer Question - When to Use SetTimer, On and Off?

I'm not exactly clear on when and how to use the SetTimer, On and SetTimer, Off command. I have a PC that doesn't seem to want to fall asleep at the set interval so I'm wrote the following script to put it to sleep after a defined interval if there has been no user input. The script seems to correct...

Thanks for the quick response. I didn't know there were so many options to go forward and back. I guess what I was looking for was the browser forward and back. I ended up using the {XButton1} and {XButton2}. I will probably experiment with the others as well.

Thanks again.

My mouse does not have back or forward buttons. How can I use AHK to simulate pressing these buttons on the mouse? I found an AHK script called Mouse Gestures which interprets mouse gestures (http://www.autohotkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1435). I just need to know what keys/commands to assign to t...

Thanks for the reply. I didn't realize that FileMove could also be used to rename files. After playing around a little with the syntax, I got FileMove to work. This is much better and faster than using the Windows Rename function by calling {F2}.

Thanks for your help!

I have a simple script that loops through the files in a directory to trim the end of the file name. I read the file name into the clipboard, then look for a character string, then trim the characters after the special character. I'm using the {F2} key to select the rename function, then {Ctrl}{C} t...

That did it. Thanks for your help. I knew that the script did not like the comma, I just didn't know how to tell the script to use the comma as a text character and not as some sort of delimiter for the command. What I was missing was the need to precede the comma with the accent character `, Thanks...

I am a total newbie, so forgive my ignorance. I have a file that contains a list of values. I would like to read the list of values in the input file and concatenate additional characters, namely a single quote before the value and a single quote and comma after the value, then write the results to ...
