Question 1:

i have no idea how to make scroll lock work on AHK. what im trying to acomplish is. whenever the scroll lock key is ON. the a key will send the d key. and the s key will send the f key. but only when the scroll lock key is on.  i dont know how to set the scroll lock key to on in any script

 

Answer 1 ....got a script running how i want c:

$a::
   GetKeyState, state, ScrollLock, T ; state will be 'D' if ScrollLock is on or 'U' if it is off

   if ( state = "D" )
      send d
   Else
      send a
return


$s::
   GetKeyState, state, ScrollLock, T ; state will be 'D' if ScrollLock is on or 'U' if it is off

   if ( state = "D" )
      send f
   Else
      send s
return

Basically it makes the a send d when scroll locl is on and send f on s when its on but  a and s regularly when its off.

 

 

the guides arent very helpful to me. so help would be greatly appreciated. thank you for your time
