Windows Tool: Single line retyping tool

Do you type the same thing over and over again?
Do you do that in Windows machines?
If only someone can retype them for you….

Why not save the words as shortcuts and press a hotkey to type them all in?!

Saves you time and effort! 🙂

Do you want to more features for this tool? Let me know! and I’ll add them.

How to use?
1. Run the file.
2. Type the texts you will be using a lot of.
3. Click save to update shortcuts
4. Press any of the following combinations to retype the lines on any application:
CTRL + [number keys] ALT + [number keys] CTRL + ALT + [number keys]

The tool will automatically type these in for you. If you would like it to work in the command prompt, please remember that you should give the tool Administrator permissions.

Please note this tool doesn’t work with the following special symbols:
! ^ # + { }
You have to type these symbols and a few special keys differently…

Here are conventions for special characters/keys:
{F1} – {F24} Function keys. For example: {F12} is the F12 key.
{!} !

{ASC nnnnn}
Sends an ALT+nnnnn keypad combination, which can be used to generate special characters that don’t exist on the keyboard. To generate ASCII characters, specify a number between 1 and 255. To generate ANSI characters (standard in most languages), specify a number between 128 and 255, but precede it with a leading zero, e.g. {Asc 0133}.
Unicode characters may be generated by specifying a number between 256 and 65535 (without a leading zero). However, this is not supported by all applications. For alternatives, see the section below.

{U+nnnn}
[v1.0.90+]: Sends a Unicode character where nnnn is the hexadecimal value of the character excluding the 0x prefix. This typically isn’t needed in Unicode versions of AutoHotkey, where Send and ControlSend automatically support Unicode text.
