16 | *Example* |
||
17 | |||
18 | <pre> |
||
19 | ; Send CTRL + t keys to the active window. |
||
20 | /sendkeys ^t |
||
21 | |||
22 | 5 | Per Amundsen | ; Send emoji to the active window. |
23 | //sendkeys -p $chr(55357) $+ $chr(56832) |
||
24 | |||
25 | ; Toggle caps lock. |
||
26 | 1 | Per Amundsen | /sendkeys {CAPSLOCK} |
27 | 8 | Paul Janson | |
28 | ; open the Ctrl+K colors dialog (note that it's important to use lowercase k) |
||
29 | /sendkeys ^k |
||
30 | ; open the Ctrl+Shift+K colors dialog |
||
31 | /sendkeys ^K |
||
32 | or |
||
33 | /sendkeys ^+k |
||
34 | |||
35 | ; open the options dialog. Note that upper-case 'O' doesn't work because that makes sendkeys use ctrl+shift+O instead of Ctrl+O |
||
36 | /sendkeys %o |
||
37 | ; note that in a script this will try to send the contents of the %o variable, so in a script use $+(%,o) or % $+ o |
