Hi Dilwyn, I did something similar to what you aiming at some years ago now with recording the actions for controlling a robotic arm. I used an array - DIM statement - to store the keys being pressed, using different letters on the keyboard. Inside the program, the key presses were then converted to a binary number to output to the robotic arm. In this way, a user was able to input a sequence of their own choosing to drive the device. Once stored, this could be repeated over and over again. Another extension would be write the information to a file, and then be able to read it in again at some later time. >I'm looking to write a little utility to record keypresses as macros, >if necessary assigning them to a hotkey or altkey for later use. > >Some processes mean repeated strings of keypresses, so it may be handy >to record these keypresses and replay them later with an alt or hot >key to avoid typing the same commands repeatedly. > >Anyone have any idea how best to go about achieving this? -- Malcolm Cadman _______________________________________________ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm
