Question: what happens if one does not have a Win key on their keyboard?
Answer: script won't work.
Since the code is not freely available, I can't use it because my IBM model M keyboard does not have the Win key.
Suggestions? _________________ AHK tools by Drugwash |

If it's on one line, you don't need "Return". |

Only that in Win9x, AHK cannot distinguish between R/L modifiers such as ALT, CTRL, WIN. And I'm running Win98SE.
At least a hotkey configuration dialog could be added, as a tray menu item, if not releasing the sources.
And I don't get it why this has been split as a separate topic, because it was strictly related to a certain compiled script (Easy WinAPI) that does not offer the sources. It's not a general question about key remapping or anything.  _________________ AHK tools by Drugwash |

Does that work? Or does it still have a problem with LWin? |

I have no idea, because I don't know if Easy WinAPI works in 9x or not.
Got no other script that uses the WIN key.
Maybe remapping doesn't work at all or I'm just not getting it.  _________________ AHK tools by Drugwash |

does work, and another script will see (and catch it). I just tested this on win98se, so I know it works.
I have a rule of not running scripts that I do not have the source for, so I can't tell you if WinAPI works on '98 or not. |

Forget that, I have no clue as to where I got the idea that you needed to send #c - dementia must be coming early to me.
But this might work.
| Code: | Insert::Send {RWin}
; or
Insert::Send {SC05b} ; left windows key, right windows key = SC05c |

During some (limited) tests performed with a modern keyboard, the Win key seems to send a CTRL+ESC combination, which under Win9x automatically opens the Start menu. So I guess even if one did have the Win key on the keyboard, the script wouldn't work as desired.
It would've been nice if the source were available or there was at least the ability of changing hotkeys. Hopeless, I'd say, after all this time.  |
