Suggestion: SendMessage/PostMessage/ScanKey in MemHack IDE
Posted: Sat Jul 22, 2006 8:49 pmSome programs, like uICE and Girder, have an option to hook Windows and monitor messages. They then let you select the message to make a target program do something, and send those messages to the process. It's how I use uICE to change channels in DScaler without forcing DScaler to the foreground.
ScanKey is a program that monitors keypresses and reports the appropriate keycode so I can map the special multimedia keys on my keyboard in LiteStep. Since I'm not running Explorer, the buttons don't work but once I know the code I can make them do anything I want.
My request would be for integrated functionality from both programs. If, during script development, I'd like MemHack to use SendMessage, or activate my hack by pressing the "Eject" button, I could just choose a menu option or whatever and MemHack would handle the recording of the keypress, or monitor the SendMessage for me to include. All without having to use another program that might not have intuitive display of those messages (if any).
