Run a Command Topic is solved

[aboose]

I have never used this program before and need guidance from a complete noob perspective as I'm not a coder.

I have a program called "Multiscreen Blank" which dims / blanks out predefined regions/groups.

Here is an example of a commandline that it provides:

"multiscreenblank2 /toggle group 1"

If I copy this into my "run" command of my PC, the function performs.

Now all I want to do is create an AHK script where I can find this function to a designated Key (EG: F13)

Can any smart folks here help me with what I hope is a simple request? I tried doing a script as follows:

> run multiscreenblank2 /toggle group 1

But I get an error.
