Hi,
I am new to Python, and I'm miserably failing to send specific keys to
(say) notepad.
Here is the scenario:
I have notepad open.
My python script is running in the background.
When I press ALT+a I want to intercept the keys and send "ä"(ASCII code:
ALT+0228) instead.
OS: Windows 7
Libraries used: pyHook, SendKeys, pyWin32
Here is my code:
###############################
# -*- coding: cp1252 -*-
import pythoncom, pyHook
from SendKeys import SendKeys
def OnKeyboardEvent(event):
if event.Alt == 32: #alt pressed
if event.Ascii == 97: #a pressed
SendKeys("ä")
return False #don't pass to other handlers
# return True to pass the event to other handlers
return True
# create a hook manager
hm = pyHook.HookManager()
# watch for all mouse events
hm.KeyDown = OnKeyboardEvent
# set the hook
hm.HookKeyboard()
# wait forever
pythoncom.PumpMessages()
###############################
It's largely copied from the pyhook example.
My problem is, I need to somehow disable ALT while sonding the key.
Please help :)
