AutoHotkey Community

hello

1)
in greek when you click the shift+; nothing happens but in the next char you ll type it will stress it like this: ι -> ϊ

how can I make shift+; to type : in greek as it does in english?

2)
and generally, how do I represent the click of a key that does nothing but it stresses the next character?

3)
how do I make hotkeys specific for a "keyboard input" ?

thanks

Haven't you tried remapping?

You have it already: Shift+Q. Anyway you can remap as said above.

You can check the language in your scripts. Examples:

Hope it helps. Kali epityxia!

iason, have you by any chance come across the same problem as me and azure? not being able to type tonous every time? I m under the impression it must have to do with too many applications/ahk scripts running at the same time...after i had closed some applications and ahk scripts, everything was ok (and i m almost sure it's not the ahk scripts themselves that produce the problem in the first place!)

sorry for typing in greek before btw..

Explicitly i would not call this a "problem", since this is the way the keys are supposed to function. So if you want it otherwise, refer to standards, and remap. AHK is perfect on that..

As to the third question, just detect the keybord state beforehand and then instruct your hotkeys to act in either case.

This makes me suspect that you had conflicts in your script(s). AFAIK.

I m sorry, my post wasn't clear..I skimmed through azure's post and wrongly assumed it was about the same problem as in one of his other posts, not being able to type in accents (tonous) *every single time* .. This is what my problem is, not the other three.. I can't type accents all the time..

Can't type accents? No 'iota me tonno', no 'omikron me tonno'? Probably this does not have to do with AHK... Are you you on windows with some sort of MUI or what? Strange...

No, no mui..i have a theory, that too many ahk scripts overload the system and it is somehow unable to deliver the tonnos every single time..
if i close some of them the tonnos is pressed more frequently!!
One of my scripts has about 100 hotkeys and 50hotstrings..maybe that could burden the system?

that should not be much of a burden at all. What is the CPU usage of each program that has issues?

I would suggest that you check all those hotkeys that interfere with keyboard, i.e. have commands like Send, Sendraw etc.
I once had this type of problem with a hot key that had to do with Left-Click and i finally resolved playing with SetKeyDelay.

thanks very much! It could be that, since I do have the lmb as a hotkey in different situations!
i will try it as soon as i can and post any results here.. thanks again!

hmm i rechecked the script, tried commenting out various sections, and guess what: it doesn't really matter which part you comment out!! i tried commenting out block by block, and momentarily each time I thought I had found the culprit, but it turns out that no specific block is responsible for the accents not printing !!!! weird or what?!

update!
this only happens when i have hotstrings in my scripts!!
(greek or english, doesn't matter)
Could this be a bug?
