Hi,

i am trying to reuse an old script of mine that was used to connect to telnet session.

when i just changed the command line and the simulated keys to send i noticed that the controlsend only sends the numbers but not the letters Very Happy

Code:

;#NOTrayICon
SendMode InputThenPlay ; thought it might do somthing, tried all modes
Gui, Show, h60 w200, SSH
Gui, Add, Button, x5 y5 w80 h30 gSSH1, Test
Gui, Add, Button, x115 y5 w80 h30 gSSH2 ,CISCO Test
Gui, Add, Text, x5 y40 w195 h15 Center, bla bla
Return

SSH1:
Run, %comspec% /k cmd ,%A_WorkingDir%, Max, TelnetPID
Sleep, 10000
ControlSend,, metal38{enter}, ahk_pid %TelnetPID%
Sleep, 5000
ControlSend,, jdt54b{enter}, ahk_pid %TelnetPID%
Return

SSH2:
Run, %comspec% /k plink 172.17.1.99 -l cisco -pw 12345 -P 22 ,%A_WorkingDir%, Max, TelnetPID
Sleep, 5000
ControlSend,, n{enter}, ahk_pid %TelnetPID%
Sleep, 5000
ControlSend,, jdt54b{enter}, ahk_pid %TelnetPID%
Return

Return
GuiClose:
ExitApp


maybe i am doing something wrong Rolling Eyes

check the first button it opens up a cmd and you will see only numbers appears not the whole word.

i am using vista ultimate 32bit
and AHK 1.0.47.04

Thanks in advance,
Twhyman

Although I don't know of any problems with ControlSend under Vista, ControlSend isn't compatible with all types of applications.

You could try granting the script admin privileges to see if that helps:
Code:
if not A_IsAdmin
{
   DllCall("shell32\ShellExecuteA", uint, 0, str, "RunAs", str, A_AhkPath
      , str, """" . A_ScriptFullPath . """", str, A_WorkingDir, int, 1)
   ExitApp
}

If that's not it, you could try experimenting with SetKeyDelay.

I don't have any problems sending text to Console windows - Vista Business 32bit, AHK 1.0.47.04.
Code:
ControlSend,, echo abc123`n, ahk_class ConsoleWindowClass
Neither the console nor AutoHotkey are running with admin privileges.

The code you posted also works.

I have problems too with ControlSend.
I found out that it only happens on dual-core CPUs that wrong characters are typed. ( like shift key is pressed too long ).

Had to change all occurences of ControlSend to Send,
