This question is in reference to the following post: Question answered by georgesl

I have copied all of the code that georgesl posted in his answer to the question; however, nothing is happening for me. I am not sure where to start in order to diagnose the problem here. I named the file where I copied all of georgesl's code into "keystud.py" I opened the python console and did the following:

Python 2.7.9
>>> from keystud import *
>>> AltTab()
>>> time.sleep(5); PressKey(0x48)

During the above sleep time of 5, I opened a blank notepad and placed the cursor in it so that the program would hopefully type an "h" in it. I also created a python file with the same code and tried it by running it not using the console to no avail.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Just found the answer to my own question. I am running a 64 bit machine and I had to change the following.

changed (line numbers included for easy reference):

Line 4: SendInput = ctypes.windll.user32.SendInput

To the following:

Line 4: SendInput = ctypes.windll.user64.SendInput

Hope this helps someone else.

  • It is from the post that I referred to: "This question is in reference to the following post:" Look at the first line in my question. Maybe I should have just re-posted the code from the link, sorry for the confusion. – BenjaminL Jan 11 '15 at 03:19

Why don't you use: 

type('h')

You can use commands like Key.ENTER or Key.TAB to hit the Enter or Tab button etc.
