Ampersand in Gui,Add,Button fails to underline character "Continued"

This is an update to an old post. https://autohotkey.com/boards/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=5761&sid=d1bc1087e43bc47eefe26736f2c33f15 After reading it I have come to the conclusion that: send, {Alt} won't work. As you can see from my requirements at the bottom of the old post, I do need to show the undersc...

Re: Ampersand in Gui,Add,Button fails to underline character

Most, even "lexikos", in this old thread were of the opinion that this issue was not a "bug" but a feature. I agree with him. I am simply looking for a workaround for something that was well defined in this old thread. I am also pointing out that this [Alt] situation goes beyond the initial undersco...

Re: Ampersand in Gui,Add,Button fails to underline character

1stly, I would not want to force the users make special changes. 2ndly, I have a form that is sometimes used to just take a quick view of a variable and is then immediately hotkey closed. 3rdly, I would very much like to have the underscore visible for ease of use and clarity sake. 4thly, I would no...

My latest use is to jump upwards (backwards) in listbox menus, to the previous (current) hit letter in the menu. I use a "Space" hotkey to go backward...

Thanks Masonjar13, That is what I am now doing. I compare (thanks Xtra) all the registry exe's with my comprehensive list of browser exe names (need new eyeballs). One menu choice will be to use the "active" window though, (for non-installed portable browsers), so I would still like to control that ...

Re: Determine if exe or path is a valid browser?

Hi gilliduck, I just need to check if the exe (and path) obtained is a browser program at all, as opposed to some other program that I would not like to run URLs with. (autohotkey.exe for example). So any browser would do. There are 100s of browsers out there. Many are for other countries or languag...

Re: Determine if exe or path is a valid browser?

Thanks Masonjar13 and ShadowPhoenix, Those are good ideas. ShadowPhoenix: Could we "ping " or tweak the x browser to see if it can access the port? This might be a less problamatic than running a link in case it is not a browser after all? https://autohotkey.com/board/topic/111086-solved-check-if-co...

Re: Determine if exe or path is a valid browser?

Thanks Shadowphoenix, I am just using a very basic: Run, "%myBrowserPath%" "%myURL%",, UseErrorLevel There is no automation going on. I do some with IE, but not with X browsers. Even Firefox and Chrome are basically a pain for that. I like to think it is somewhat more than "simply" and "frequently"....

Determine if exe or path is a valid browser?

Hi,

If I know the full path & (exe name), is there any way to verify that it is from
a valid browser? There are hunderds of browsers over many years possible.

If not, I could use a comprehensive list of browser exe names. For example:
iexplore.exe, firefox.exe, chrome.exe ...

Thanks
