I have a python script copytimeinbuffer.py, and I need to run this with shift-f1 key. I used his script.

+F1::
Run "c:\bin\python27\python e:/copytimeinbuffer.py"
Send !{Space}ep
Return

However, I got this error message.

enter image description here

What's wrong with the script?

  • Somewhat unrelated note: Instead of sending !{Space}ep, you could use win32clipboard to read the clipboard contents.

  • @grawity : I did that to emulate '^V' as is answered in superuser.com/questions/196631/… - it doesn't work though.

  • I know what !{Space}ep does. I also know that there are better ways to do the same thing than sending keypresses.

Try removing the quotes from your Run argument. It could be that AHK is attempting to run a file named python e:/copytimeinbuffer.py, instead of just python. (The path to your .py file is a separate argument, and should not need to be quoted.)

  • Thanks for the answer. BTW, could you hint me why the print string in python isn't shown in the console? I asked about it in another post - superuser.com/questions/336509/…

One thing what I found in running python script is that I needed to insert Sleep 100 before running the other AHK script.
