Keyboard macros
Show how to link user defined methods to user defined keys. An example of this is the facility provided by emacs for key bindings. These key bindings may be application-specific or system-wide; state which you have done.
You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.
AutoHotkey
<lang AutoHotkey>Loop, 200 ; loop 200 times while not paused {
TrayTip, counting, %A_Index% press alt-p to pause Sleep, 1000
}
!p:: ; links alt-p key combination to the method pauseme() (system wide)
pauseMe()
Return
!r:: ; links alt-r key combination to the method resume() (system wide)
resume()
Return
pauseMe() {
MsgBox, pausing`, press alt-r to resume Pause
}
resume() {
TrayTip, resume, resuming, 2 Pause, off
}</lang> See ahk-viper-mode for a context sensitive vi key bindings example.

The following example grabs Alt+F6 and Alt+F7 system-wide on a X server. <lang c>#include <stdio.h>
- include <stdlib.h>

int main() {

Java
<lang java> package keybord.macro.demo;
import javax.swing.JFrame; import javax.swing.JLabel; import java.awt.event.KeyAdapter; import java.awt.event.KeyEvent;
class KeyboardMacroDemo {
public static void main( String [] args ) { final JFrame frame = new JFrame(); String directions = "<html>Ctrl-S to show frame title
" +"Ctrl-H to hide it</html>"; frame.add( new JLabel(directions)); frame.addKeyListener( new KeyAdapter(){ public void keyReleased( KeyEvent e ) { if( e.isControlDown() && e.getKeyCode() == KeyEvent.VK_S){ frame.setTitle("Hello there"); }else if( e.isControlDown() && e.getKeyCode() == KeyEvent.VK_H){ frame.setTitle(""); } } }); frame.pack(); frame.setVisible(true); }

JavaScript
The example below captures the F7 key when pressed, if the document (that is, the web page) has focus. If the function returns false, the event processing is halted. If it returns any other value, including undefined, the event continues up the DOM tree ('bubbling').
<lang javascript>document.onkeydown = function(evt) {
if (evt.keyCode === 118) { alert("You pressed F7!"); return false; }
}</lang>
See quirksmode for more information about key detection in JavaScript.
Mathematica
Map the keystroke t to a simple script <lang Mathematica>SetOptions[EvaluationNotebook[], NotebookEventActions -> {{"KeyDown", "t"} :> Print["You pressed \"t\""]}]</lang>
Oz
Window-specific key bindings: <lang oz>declare
[QTk] = {Module.link ['x-oz://system/wp/QTk.ozf']} Label Window = {QTk.build td(label(text:"Hello" handle:Label))}
in
{Window bind(event:"<Control-x><Control-s>"
action:proc {$} {Label set(text:"This is not Emacs.")} end )}
{Window bind(event:"<Control-x><Control-c>"
action:toplevel#close )}
{Window show}</lang>
PicoLisp
The 'fkey' function associates a key with an executable body. Some common key codes are predefined in "lib/term.l". Here we use 'F1' to store the value 1 in a global variable, 'Up' and 'Down' arrows to increment or decrement that value, and 'Home' to print the current value to the console. <lang PicoLisp>(load "@lib/term.l")
(fkey *XtF1
(prinl "Initialized value to " (setq *Number 1)) )
(fkey *XtUp
(prinl "Incremented to " (inc '*Number)) )
(fkey *XtDown
(prinl "Decremented to " (dec '*Number)) )
(fkey *XtHome
(prinl "Current value is " *Number) )</lang>
Output when hitting 'F1', 'Down', 'Up', 'Up' and 'Home':
Initialized value to 1 Decremented to 0 Incremented to 1 Incremented to 2 Current value is 2
PureBasic
PureBasic has support for shortcut/macro creation in any window that supports events. This allows for creation of both single and combinations as shown in the code below. For full set of combinations on PC, Mac & Linux please see the official manual, here. <lang PureBasic>#Win = 0
- Demo1 = 0
- Demo2 = 1
If OpenWindow(#Win,50,50,200,60,"PureBasic",#PB_Window_SystemMenu)
; AddKeyboardShortcut(#Win,#PB_Shortcut_F1, #Demo1) AddKeyboardShortcut(#Win,#PB_Shortcut_F|#PB_Shortcut_Alt, #Demo2) ; Repeat WEvent = WaitWindowEvent() Select WEvent Case #PB_Event_Menu Select EventMenu() Case #Demo1 MessageRequester("Info", "You Pressed F1")
Case #Demo2 MessageRequester("Info", "You Pressed Alt-F")
EndSelect Case #PB_Event_CloseWindow Break EndSelect ForEver
EndIf</lang>

Retro
There is a global key handler which we can hook into to capture keys. As a fairly trivial example, remap the ~ key to clear the display.
<lang Retro>[ default: getc
[ '~ = ] [ drop clear 0 ] when
] is getc</lang>
Additional when conditions could be added to handle other keys. Clearing the key handler to restore its default functionality is done by doing:
<lang Retro>devector getc</lang>
REXX
This REXX program only works with PC/REXX or Personal REXX under "DOS" or under "DOS" in Microsoft Windows 1, 2, 3, 95, 98, or 2000.
It won't work for the Microsoft Windows/NT family (Windows/NT/XP/Vista/7/8).
If under Microsoft Windows, the change is only for the current "DOS" session (i.e., that DOS window).
If under a native DOS, the change is system wide.
Almost every keyboard key (including the F (function) keys, numeric keypad, can be re-defined.
REXX programs not included are $T which is only used when specific options are used (used when TOPS is specified),
the $ERR program which issues errors, and $H which shows help and other documentation.

Ruby
Here's a sample from the Shoes manual showing how to capture key sequences. This is application specific.
<lang ruby>Shoes.app do
@info = para "NO KEY is PRESSED." keypress do |k| @info.replace "#{k.inspect} was PRESSED." end
end</lang>
A more specific example, using some emacs bindings
<lang ruby>Shoes.app do
keypress do |key| case key when "\x04" # control-d delete_char when :backspace delete_previous_char when "\x14" # control-t transpose_chars when :alt_t transpose_words when "\x18" # control-x @ctrl_x = true when "\x13" # control-s if @ctrl_x save_text @ctrl_x = false end when "\x11" # control-q exit if @ctrl_x end end
end</lang>
Tcl
All Tk bindings are bound to a context that is no wider than a particular application and is frequently smaller (e.g., a single dialog box or an individual widget). <lang tcl>package require Tk
- Show off some emacs-like bindings...
pack [label .l -text "C-x C-s to save, C-x C-c to quit"] focus . bind . <Control-x><Control-s> {
tk_messageBox -message "We would save here"
} bind . <Control-x><Control-c> {exit}</lang>
Key-to-key mapping macros
A more direct macro-like facility (substituting one key sequence for another) would be: <lang tcl>bind . <F1> {
foreach c [split "Macro demo!" {}] { event generate %W $c }
}</lang> This can then be wrapped up like this: <lang tcl>package require Tk proc sendMacro {w string} {
foreach c [split $string {}] { # Will not work for “<” character... event generate $w $c }
} proc macro {key translation} {
bind . <$key> [list sendMacro %W [string map {% %%} $translation]]
}
- Some demonstration macros
macro F1 "Help me!" macro F2 "You pressed the F2 key" macro F3 "I'm getting bored here..." pack [text .t]; # A place for you to test the macros</lang>
Vedit macro language
<lang vedit>// Configure a key to access menu item. // The menu item may then contain the commands directly, or it may call a macro from disk. // This has the advantage that the key binding is shown in the menu.
Key_Add("Shft-F6","[MENU]TV", OK)
// Configure a key to perform visual mode edit operations (similar to recorded key macro):
Key_Add("Numpad.Enter", "[CURSOR LEFT][LINE END][RETURN]", OK)
// Configure a key to execute macro language commands:
Key_Add("Numpad+", '[VISUAL EXIT] if(BB!=-1) { RCB(10,BB,BE) BB(-1) S("|@(10)",SET+CONFIRM) } else { S("",CONFIRM) }', OK)
// Configure a key to call a macro from disk. The old key assignment is not removed.
Key_Add("Ctrl-Shft-N",'[VISUAL EXIT] Call_File(100,"aspell.vdm","NEXT_ERROR")',INSERT+OK)
// Configure a two-key sequence (C-x C-c to save file).
Key_Add("^X C","[MENU]FS", OK)
// Remove a key assignment. If INSERT option was used when the key was assigned, the old assignment will come in effect again.
Key_Delete("Ctrl-Shft-N")</lang>
