Hi,
Coincidentally I'm using the hotkey code from Tim's url and it works
quite well.
But I'm not sure which is better:
user32.GetMessageA or user32.GetMessageW (along with the
corresponding user32.DispatchMessageA or user32.DispatchMessageW of course).
Regards,
Link.

I do not want a single script because, eventually, the plan is to have a

ram used, a keystroke for hard disk space, and so on. While I could
write each function in its own script and put a hotkey on each one, it
seems easier and faster to just make one script and run it once,
avoiding the delay I always get when this script runs for the first time
from happening each time I press a hotkey.
I've got slightly lost in this thread (not helped, I'm
afraid Alex, by your habit of top-posting ;) ) but in
an effort to be helpful, can I suggest the following.
Instead of fiddling with pyHooks which are -- as Tim R
points out -- somewhat dark and messy, consider adapting
the following example instead:
http://timgolden.me.uk/python/win32_how_do_i/catch_system_wide_hotkeys.html
This uses a straightforward Windows message loop to
provide to sort of global hotkeys I think you're after.
You might, for example, change the handle_win_f3
function to start a wmi instance (or use an existing
one) and then produce the output you were after.
