Key Remapping
« on: Sat, 08 January 2011, 16:24:56 »
I'm curious what program people around here use to remap key combinations on their keyboards?  I want to set up some combinations for volume control as well as pause/play and skip song, and I figured I'd see what geekhackers are using to do things like that.

Key Remapping

Thanks, AutoHotKey is pretty cool.  I've got it working so that windows key + up/down changes my volume, and the apps key plays/pauses my media player.  I want to make it so that win key + left/right skips or goes to the previous song as well, but for the life of me I can't get it to work and I don't know why.  Anybody around here have any experience with this that can help?

It's weird because I can remap left/right to next/prev just fine, but as soon as I try to do it with the windows key modifier included it just doesn't seem to work.

Post your code or something. I just tried this snippet and it works.
Code: [Select]

Hotkey, #Left, Prev
Hotkey, #Right, Next
return

Prev:
  MsgBox, Prev
return

Next:
  MsgBox, Next
return
