AutoHotkey Community

Hey everyone, I make little basic computer games like Pong ECT. just a hobbiest programer. I do often use autohotkey to trigger events my programs cannot. Works very well. One thing my program cannot do it change certain aspects of windows. One of those aspects is the keyboard repeat rate. IE, when you press "a" it shows an "a", and after 0.2 seconds or whatever it then starts to repeat "A". Useing the arrow keys to control my pong pattle is very silly currently because it moves a little bit, pauses, then repeats, just like if you were to press any keystroke. Does anyone know a basic script that would disable that pause all together and go right to repeating the action? Any help would be greatly apreciated!
Thanks!

In your program, instead of waiting on WM_KEYDOWN messages, poll the Windows function GetKeyState() every trip through your main message loop.

Bah sorry about the double post.

Anyhow, I should have added to use PeekMessage() instead of GetMessage().

Wm_keydown is'nt an option in my utility. Thats why I was trying to use autohotkey to make an exe to temp disable the pause inbetween key presses. I would simply call apon this script when my app starts and have it be self terminating when my app is closed. Has anyone fooled around with this before?
