Well, the mechanical KVM was almost guaranteed to work as it only switches which wires are physically connected.

Mechanical KVMs can also be used 'backward' hooking up two keyboards and two mice to ...

If that's the case, then it is exactly the problem I had, and I did find a solution for me, and ahk was a part of that solution. I wanted to know more details of Marius' setup and exactly what he is t ...

cool
but...... Crying or Very sad

it wont work for me either because its a USB supported KVM (never did see such a KVM yet) or because I am using M$ intellipoint mouse.

It's been a long day, so excuse me if ...

The hotkey

*~Shift::

doesn't fire when Shift + a is pressed, it only fires when Shift is pressed and released.

Is there a way to have a hotkey fire when Shift is pressed, regradless of whethe ...

I'm guessing that this has not been made easy to script due to the potiential of a script like that being easily modified into a key logger...

I wouldn't have thought of that, but it may be useful ...

There are surely more elegant ways to do this.

That's what I'm hoping for Wink

Brute force would be a long script. Over a hundred keys and mouse buttons, then all the modifier combinations of those ...

Has someone already written a script that counts the number of times each key and mouse button is pressed?

I want to measure the relative frequency of how often I press each key on the keyboard and ...

This should do it:

Xbutton1::
send {LAlt DOWN}
KeyWait XButton1 ; Wait for the user to release the button.
send {LAlt UP}
return

I'm curious why AHK seems to prefer the above over:
Xbutton ...

The extra buttons on my Microsoft mouse aren't supported by ahk's hotkeys too so I don't think there's a way to do it yet.

That's odd. Works for me. With Windows 2000, and a Microsoft Intellimouse ...

That is strange, I haven't found anything either... Are there any plans of converting AHK to Linux?

I never used it, but I remember a web page that described how to pop up a cheat sheet in Linux. B ...

Here are a few things that might indirectly answer your questions.

Firstly, I don't think there's a way to change the state of a mouse button (down or up) without the system being aware that you di ...

I've tried a few more things, and I suppose that I might be able to get of some of what I want with some combination of using the flag, and having different hotkeys for different windows. But it's a b ...

I don't think so because a prefix key such as XButton1 will fire it's naked counterpart (XButton1::) upon release rather than upon press-down of XButton1. This behavior is described on the
Thanks fo ...

Rather than setting a flag, you might find it easier to have a timer that selectively disables RButton hotkeys depending on which type of window is active.
If I only wanted to fix this behaviour in ...

left + right would be middle click

Oops, I meant double click, but pretty much the same thing, just change MouseClick Midde to two MouseClick Lefts.
The following seems to work:
