quick and dirty way to send keys using MSDN Virtual Keycodes

i'm not gonna post the entire TASM32 .code setups, just how it works







VK_WIN equ 5Bh ; THIS IS THE WINDOWS KEY
VK_M equ 4Dh ;THIS IS THE M KEY

push 0
push 0
push 0
push VK_WIN ;WINDOWS keypress
call keybd_event ;call OBSOLETE API
push 0
push 0
push 0
push VK_M ;M KEYPRESS
call keybd_event ;call OBSOLETE API

if placed into your asm code will MINIMIZE ALL WINDOWS that can be minimized
check out the keybd_event Function thru the MSDN for further info

sendinput wouldnt work with tasm32 via a simple call SendInput, so you'll have to load user32.dll then the sendinput function thru another means... keybd_event is quicker

Interesting... Would that be push dword 0 or push word 0 ?
By the way, for future reference, we have a "Classes and Code Snippets" forum for things like this.

has to be dword...

yu can test this out by changing the push 0 to
push dword 0 across the board then try it with push word 0 you'll notice in this example if its just plain dword 0 it still minimizes, but if its push word 0 it wont minimize

and thnx for the code snippets link... my bad...

No problem, I did this too when I was starting out. :) I'm going to see if I can move this.
