This is cool, I don't use my mouse so it's not for me, but on my phone I use something like this all the time.

I use to use a similar plugin on FireFox called Gesturefy, it worked great and I'm assuming it still does. If you're a proficient touch-typist, VimVixen (Or something like it) is a plugin that lets you navigate the web using only your keyboard, which is much quicker for navigating and then jumping into typing.

Also, If you're gonna do any kind of script editing, you really should look into a better text editor instead of the built-in notepad.

Notepad++ is a good choice for just starting out or doing quick and simple edits. If you get in deeper, VSCode is very popular choice among many developers (VSCode Portable).

StrokePlus looks to be potentially life-changing for me so many thanks. As a one-armed user I'm always on the lookout for anything like this. A huge force-multiplier in terms of not having to waste time moving from mouse to keyboard, etc. :D

This script will only run once,no background tasks(I deleted some lines,I don't know what it was...),it works fine with Strokesplus to call XY's command of a feature or script.

Code: Select all

xyPath := "D:\XYplorer"
xyExe  := "XYplorer.exe"
xyID   := "ahk_class ThunderRT6FormDC ahk_exe " xyExe

    xyHWnd := WinExist(xyID)

    if (xyHWnd) {
Send_WM_COPYDATA(xyHWnd, "::#1027")
    }
Send_WM_COPYDATA(xyHWnd, message) {
    size := StrLen(message)
    if !(A_IsUnicode) {

    } else {
        data := message
    }
    VarSetCapacity(COPYDATA, A_PtrSize * 3, 0)
    NumPut(4194305, COPYDATA, 0, "Ptr")
    NumPut(size * 2, COPYDATA, A_PtrSize, "UInt")
    NumPut(&data, COPYDATA, A_PtrSize * 2, "Ptr")
    result := DllCall("User32.dll\SendMessageW", "Ptr", xyHWnd, "UInt", 74, "Ptr", 0, "Ptr", &COPYDATA, "Ptr")
}
