AutoHotkey Community

I seen in the changelog :

My country, my keyboard, my card are french, (I have a French Express...)

On my XP machine, at home, I have in a script :it works perfectly. (Ver 1.0.35.05 and probably the previous ones)

A part from this topic, MakeNewFolder is a very good little utility to create a folder or a succession of folders......

Come back to the bug :
at work, on my NT4 rev 6 machine, the result is :with 1.035.00 and 1.0.35.05 versions of AHK (the two I had this morning)

So at work, when I want to send the access path of a file to an application in a open dialog, AHK say me : "If you want that I do the things correctly, come back home." I asked for that to my boss this morning and ... I prefer to forget this sad story...

This appears with the Send command. With Run it is always OK ...

Please, Chris, the AHK Guru, can you fix this ?

Thanks by advance

Let me summarize. Please correct any of these that are wrong:

1) Send, C:\Program Files worked correctly on both NT and XP with versions of AutoHotkey prior to 1.0.35.

2) With 1.0.35+, backslash is not sent on NT but it is on XP.

3) You are using the French keyboard layout on both NT and XP.

4) Backslash is a character for which you must hold down AltGr.

Thanks.

1) to 3) = YES

4) "\" on a french keyboard = AltGr + "_" (witch is on the 8 key, 8 in upper case and _ in lower case), Alt + Ctrl + _ gives too the "\" character

I go to the work. I will try again with 1.0.33, 1.0.34 and later to compare...

Hi. I'm come back from work and I confirm :

On Win NT 4.0 Rev 6 French (with french keyboard), "Send, \" works perfectly with 1.0.34 and don't work anymore with 1.0.35 and up.

Is it possible to fix it ?

Thanks by advance

Hopefully it's been fixed in today's release. Thanks for reporting it.

Thanks Chris for the quick fix.

I will see tomorrow at work if it's ok for \ (and I will try others AltGr chars to be sure) and I will confirm you if all is OK in the French side of the force...

I jumped directly to the 1.0.35.07 and I can confirm you, the bug is crushed... Unpleasant small beast !!!

Of course many thanks for the quick fix !!!
