AutoHotkey Community

Hey Orygynl,
I'm pretty sure that mod has been proposed, and I think it was found to be not possible. Someone correct me if I'm wrong
Sincerely,
berban

Removing the "I" from the options of the Input command might help, with a couple more changes (untested):To avoid possible infinite loops, use SendInput inside the loop of the script, and make SendEvent the sending method for your hotstrings (SE option).

Seems like that should work, but I just tested it with no results

I see the problem: the HotString processing in AHK records your keyboard entries, and ignores the script generated keys, so it does not see a change of the capitalization. One (not so nice) idea of solution is to maintain another variable "set" in the main loop, telling if a capitalization occurred. It is cleared at a whitespace char. You also have to change all of your HotStrings to use this "set" variable to determine, what to substitute. E.g.:You have to refine the idea, like resetting the "set" variable at certain other characters or mouse activities…

Hi all!

Firstly, thanks for the brilliant script! Pure genius!

I'm currently using Autocorrect.ahk, the version listed below.

which is a bit more comprehensive then
http://www.autohotkey.com/docs/Hotstrin ... utoCorrect

1st WishList
When AutoCorrect is used together with this AutoCapitalise script, it works fine except....
it won't capitalise words autocorrected by AutoCorrect.

For eg.
Autohotkey substitution -> tot::thought

[Note: "|" represents the cursor position]

As you can see, "thought" isn't capitalised because it has been substituted by AutoCorrect.

2nd WishList
At this point, I also thought it'll be great to also implement the blackberry "double space to fullstop" feature. It will be especially useful in these situations where AutoCorrect is coupled with AutoCapitalise. Specifically, when the ending word before a fullstop is to be substituted.

For eg.
Autohotkey substitution -> tot::thought

[Note: "|" represents the cursor position]

After typing "tot", it is substituted to "thought" and the cursor's position is as indicated. The problem is when you want to end the sentence right there, you have to do a BackSpace first before putting a FullStop and then pressing Spacebar before beginning the next sentence!
The neat Blackberry feature cuts down all this to simply pressing another SpaceBar!

State Machine Style Programming
Btw, I'm just wondering... where did you learn abt state machines style of programming? Electronics Digital Design course i presume?

It seems like a pretty neat skill.

Sorry for my ignorance, but what is the advantage of this over

? I don't mean to offend, I'm just curious

Nimda's script is too simple, much more restricted. Here are a few issues with it:
- It only replaces, when {!?.} is followed by one space -> next char capitalized: two spaces, new lines are not handled. ".{space}{space}{BS}a" does not do anything...
- after ". ", "? ", "! " Nimda prevents using many keys, like BS, F[n], Ctrl+Key, Win+key, etc. You may even think your PC crashed.
- It unnecessarily excludes certain chars after {!?.}: ".{ESC} a" does not capitalize.
- It erroneously capitalizes after the mouse changes the insertion point ". {click}a" replaces a with A somewhere you may not want.

Nevertheless, if you know its limitations, Nimda's script can be useful, too.

Hi!

Maybe this solution may help!
Use Hostring() from polyethene's "Dynamic Hotstrings" with this To work fine, you also should add this line (in red)
