I am experimenting with AutoHotKeys scripts to automate entry of
fields and radio buttons in SearchReplace window.

The stated keyboard map (which I need to use to open the window) is
Ctrl+H.

"SearchReplace Ctrl+H Replaces specific text with different text"


But it seems that this keyboard shortcut does not work.

...

Alt+F3 opens the Find window.

Other shortcuts do not work ..

e.g. Function List Ctrl+F11

I have v2.12(225) - Win XP Pro.

Hi sn0wdon,

I have had some issues with macros in EditPlus and I don't have a
great deal of time to solve my issues.

I have found a free utility - PowerPro (http://powerpro.webeddie.com/index.html)
that lets me create HotKey setups (macros) that can apply to nearly any app
by specifying the Window Title (and a wild character).

For example, I like to use tabs as I program but all files need to be saved
with spaces, oh and I hate trailing spaces, so now I have a HotKey - the
NumPad Enter setup to 1. Change tabs to spaces, 2. Trim trailing spaces,
3. Save the File and then 4. Exit EditPlus. (Works about 99% of the time
depends on what mp3 software I have running).

I also use PowerPro with to AutoLogin in my telnet screens, run my toolbar
menu, post-it notes, alarms, etc etc.

Please note, I love EditPlus and I love PowerPro.

I would also love some free mono-spaced fonts other than Andale Mono,
Bitstream Vera Sans Mono, HyperFont, Lucida, Courier, and r_ansi.

HTH

Thanks John and Andrew .. but the point I was making is that Ctrl+H
is not working at all in my EditPlus configuration

According to the keymaps, Ctrl+H should bring up the Replace
window .. it does not in my setup.

I did download PowerPro and I will try it .. but it seems similar to
http://www.autohotkeys.com which I am using to create executables
which can be called as User Tools in editPlus (effectively macros).

Scripting programs (AutoHotKeys, AutoIT, PowerPro et al) require to
access window controls through keyboard shortcuts like Ctrl+H so
that is why I am stuck at the moment.

Other shortcuts work .. such as Alt+F3 .. so it is puzzling.

Can you confirm if <your> Ctrl+H brings up the Replace window?

Ctrl + H works for me
EditPlus v2.12 (225)
XP Pro 5.1.2600

Maybe you have some other program and/or utility running that is
causing the keyboard shortcut not to work?

Thanks for checking .. first I ran EditPlus in Windows safe mode and
sure enough .. the Ctrl+H shortcut worked.

Then I had to eliminate various utilities until I found the culprit
which was using the same shortcut (which I had set but forgotten!).

EditPlus is now back to normal .. I'm using http://www.AutoHotKeys.com
to target the Replace controls.

I tried to look at http://www.AutoHotKeys.com but I cannot see the web
site. Is this the correct spelling ?
