Use a caret ^ as a command Topic is solved

[Nathnos]

Hey !
I just wanted to know if it's possible to use a caret ^ as a command (plus, I have to press 2 times this button to have one caret). It would be useful.
Thanks in advance !

I'm assuming you mean whether you can use ^ as a hotkey. Yes you can. Use +6:: (that would be shift+6 which is for ^), or accordingly assign a hotkey depending on what on your keyboard gives you the caret.

Refer https://autohotkey.com/docs/Hotkeys.htm

It also sounds like you're asking for pressing ^ twice to give ^. On my keyboard that would mean pressing 6 twice (which would interfere with typing '66'), the hotstring would look like this:

Code: Select all

:*?:66::{^}
;:*?:66::{Raw}^ ;an alternative

To send a literal ^, instead of Ctrl, you use {^} or start the parameter with {Raw}, and in newer versions of AutoHotkey, {Text}.
