Re: How do I use extra keys on a keyboard?
There are (at least) 2 ways how to read keyboard in windows: - standard windows messages (WM_KEY_DOWN and others) - raw input (low level, recognizing also different keyboards) LuaMacros combines those 2 methods. If it doesn't see your extra keys probably one or both methods are failing. Try to put c...

Re: Feature Request:Media control keys
Thanks.
You mean add support for those keys to lmc_send_keys?

Re: lmc_spawn cant run Nircmd with parameter
Seeing relevant part of source code maybe number 2 makes the trouble as lua identifies the type as number, not string. I should extend this condition to fix it. Maybe (to speed thing up) you can do some additional testing with number arguments and different programs. If this is really root cause the...

Re: Feature Request: delay between keys
Could be done but such delays would block lua execution queue (this is separate thread).
I may put it on todo list but you need to remind me if you really need it

Re: Syntax for Funtion keys and key combos?
I know it's poorly documented :-/
There's some reference in Hidmacro help file, syntax is the same. I should make it available online, I know...

Re: HIDmacros > export to LUAmacros
It was not implemented but I just added such function.
Download the latest version 0.1.0.233 and then you can do something like
The function returns active window title. If you put it to some callback function it won't be LuaMacros all the time 
Download the latest version 0.1.0.233 and then you can do something like
Code: Select all
print(lmc_get_window_title())

Re: lua52-64.dll and hidmacro.exe are threats WSReputation.1
lua dll is standard lua interpreter distribution file, you can download it from anywhere.
Hidmacros.exe is built at my PC and I (and Avast) don't think it's infected.
Ask Norton for comments
. My advice is use those files or not - as you wish.

Re: Disable original key echo
Still cannot reproduce this one, my keys with callback are not echoed. However please check the latest build (download link still the same) version 0.1.0.233 which has low level keyboard code reworked because of some different bug. If you still get the echo I will prepare special version of the dll ...
