Why SendInput N sends N^?

Post by Archimede » 10 Mar 2023, 11:03

I made a file with only this line:

Code: Select all

p::SendInput q¼
and compiled it.

I made another file with this line:

Code: Select all

Input, sTest, L5 E, ×½¼
and compiled it.

I put the first exe file on a first computer, connected by remote access with the second computer.
On the first computer run the first program; on the second computer run the second program.
The first computer is connected by remote access to the second computer.
When I click p on the first computer, I receive q^ on the second computer: why? Why I no receive q?

I tried to make the same thing ( SendInput... and Input... ) on the second computer only, and it seem works well... why it works bad on the situation described before?
I tried to use only the firs computer with remote access to the second on Notebook, and it send q^ to the Notebook on the secon computer... Why?

I tested only character ¼ (ASCII 172) generates that problem; other characters like ½ (ASCII 171) and other no generates any problem: anyone can understand why?
