Try this: I changed the first line.
Dim myHotkey : Set myHotkey = Keyboard.RegisterHotkey("f2","ListenForKey")
sub listenforkey()
speak " listening for key input"
dim mykey : set mykey = keyboard.Capture()
speak "the key pressed was " & mykey.name
end sub

Subject: capture key
Hi guys,
so I'm trying to setup a method when I hit a key, like f2, to put window-eyes
in a small wait period. and allow me to hit a letter on my keyboard, and
perform a certain task, below is some really basic code.
dim myreghotkey = set myreghotkey =
keyboard.registerhotkey("f2","listenforkey",clientinformation.applicationprocess)
sub listenforkey()
speak " listening for key input"
dim mykey : set mykey = keyboard.Capture()
speak "the key pressed was " & mykey.name
end sub
when I hit f2 it says listening for key input. and I would assume that
because I have the capture next, that it should take in my next key press?
nothing happens, it doesn't speak the text that is in the sub.
any ideas? I'm sure I'm doing something really stupid.
Thanks.
