Hi, I need help with a script that spams the F1 key. So far I have

Code:

*PAUSE::Suspend
return

*F1::
Loop
{
GetKeyState,state,F1,P
if state = U
break

Send,{F1}
Sleep,10
}
return

However that only spams it if I hold down F1. Is there any way to have it spam F1 continuously by pressing it once and then stop spamming by pressing it a second time?

Code:

#MaxThreadsPerHotkey 2
$*F1::
_Break := False
If (_F1)
{
_F1 := False
_Break := True
Return
}
_F1 := True
Loop
{
If (_Break)
{
Break
}
Send, {F1}
Sleep, 10
}
Return

$ This is usually only necessary if the script uses the Send command to send the keys that comprise the hotkey itself, which might otherwise cause it to trigger itself. The exact behavior of the $ prefix varies depending on operating system:

On Windows NT4/2k/XP or later: The $ prefix forces the keyboard hook to be used to implement this hotkey, which as a side-effect prevents the Send command from triggering it. The $ prefix is equivalent to having specified #UseHook somewhere above the definition of this hotkey.
