 Posted: Wed Dec 20, 2006 10:09 am Post subject: Newbie - Open Folder shortcut |
 |
|
Hi All!
I am an absolute newbie but very interested in creating a scripts that listens for a keyboard shortcut and then opens a specified folder based on this. From looking at some of the other tools I guess it should be fairly straight forward but do not know where to start..
E.g
WindowsKey + A => Opens the directory: C\MyDirs\Directory
Would anyone be able to help me get started?
Thanks

Also, it can be a single line:
| Code: | | #a::Run, C:\MyDirs\Directory |

Was it that simple:) It works beautifully!
Many thanks..
So just to understand it.. #a:: means WindowsKey + a then I assume? Do you happen to know if there is a list somewhere with mappings between keys and varibles I can use for my future projects:)
Thanks again! |

|

Hi
I have looked at the tutorials and other posts in the forum and is working on creating another tool now:) Basically it is just a shortcut to close windows. However I have a minor issue in that when I use the command the focus is not moved to the next open window.
E.g if I have 5 IE windows open and press Win+z it will just close the first active window. If I press it again nothing happens since no window is active.. Any suggestions how I can do this? I.e I want to rapidly press Win+z to close all 5 windows one after another.
#z::WinClose, A |

WinActivate wl1
