hey there,
It's a good idea to read the help file before posting as it does contain a lot of information. I hope the following extract relates to what you're asking (Notice no /alt):
"
Function Key supportYou can
redefine function keys to perform certain commands, just like aliases. For example:
/F1 /say Hello!
/sF2 /query $1
/cF3 /ctcp $1 version
The
s and
c prefixes for
Shift key and
Control key respectively.
Note: A function key will behave
differently depending on the window in which it is used. For example, when using it in a
query window the $1 parameter refers to the selected users nickname. If you're on a
channel and the
nickname listbox is active then the function key will work on the selected nicknames. If the listbox is
not active, the function key will just work on the channel."
For further info about Aliases, see
/help Aliases. I decided to include the whole appropriate section a) So other people may benefit from the answer to your question, say, when they use the search feature, and b) pure boredom.
Using COM you could make an /alt alias to do whatever the ALT key usually does (or indeed something else), as a simple example, if you wanted to open remotes by typing /altR you might use:
altR { var %a = oWSH $+ $ticks | .comopen %a WScript.Shell | .comclose %a $com(%a, SendKeys, 3, *bstr, % $+ R) }
..in the Aliases section (ALT+D).
Be aware, COM objects are not easy so it's not recommended you pursue this action unless you understand COM objects. You could search this forum or
Google for tutorials.
Regards,
