How to run the source code?

  1. Download and install AutoHotkey (v1.1.+)
  2. Clone the Capslock+ source code
  3. Run Capslock+.ahk

How to set a custom function to a hotkey?

  1. There is a key function keyFunc_example2 in demo.ahk.
  2. Add below setting under the [Keys] section in CapsLock+settings.ini: caps_f7=keyFunc_example2
  3. Save, reload Capslock+ (CapsLock+F5)
  4. Press CapsLock+F7 to invoke the function

An example here:

Replace Capslock+Q with Listary

Listary is a good app launcher, now I want to add two features to it:

  1. Activate Listary with CapsLock+Q
  2. I want to fill the selected text into the pop-up text input box

We can make it like this:

  1. Copy the following code to /userAHK/main.ahk:

    keyfunc_listary(){
    ; Get the selected text
    selText:=getSelText()
    
    ; Send win+F (the default hotkey of Listary) to activate Listary
    sendinput, #{f}
    
    ; Wait until Listary is activated
    winwait, ahk_exe Listary.exe, , 0.5
    
    ; If there is any selected text
    if(selText){
        ; Add "gg " before the selected text to google
        selText:="gg " . selText
    
        ; Fill the text, and press `home` key to move the cursor to the beginning,
        ; in order to add other keywords if you need.
        sendinput, %selText%{home}
    }
    }
  2. Add a setting caps_q=keyfunc_listary() under [Keys] section in CapsLock+settings.ini, save, press CapsLock+F5 to reload, done.
