Hello

I have a problem with the send command.

When I type "send, exit{enter}",
the only thing which is shown on the screen is Euro-symbol.
the {enter}command isn't followed, too. (the cursor keeps beeing in the same line)
If I use for example {ASC 88} it works and theletter is shown.

I have a germen windows xp home edition, a german key-board and well I think a german Englisch (I hope you can understand it )

Might the german windows not be able to communikate corectlie with autohotkey?

PS: I want to use the exit{enter} to close a cmd window

Sorry for my bad englisch and I hope somebody can help me

Just to correct some off my mistakes

Might the german windows not be able to communicate correctly with autohotkey?

You have to be sure that the window that your sending the command to is active!
Maybe this will work,

Perhaps you could post the part of the script that has the problem.

I'm not sure why it would fail to work. The following is an example that works in Windows 98:

run, %comspec%
WinWait, MS-DOS
WinActivate
send, exit{enter}
return

I tested a few script, and it worked in every other script.
So I'm searchingmy script for errors.

thx for your help

If I'll find the rison of this problem I'll post it

It seems that it was a Problem of my windows.
I tested it with the same source again and now (after a reboot) it works.

also when you type in enter make sure they are caps {ENTER} for some reason my computer can only identify these type of commands only under caps
e.g. {SHIFTUP}{SHIFTDOWN}{ENTER}{SPACE}{ALTDOWN}{ALTUP}
