No idea, I tried and it works correctly on my computers.
Restarted and also tried on another computer... still the same thing... guess I will try on another installation. So tired of all these constant errors tbh
Just tried to add the command on a fresh, portable installation, in a completely different directory, but the result is still the same... it pastes fine inside of e.g. Notepad (without the §), but for some reason, just not inside of CMD. Surely it cannot 'just be me', when I've tried on both a fresh, portable install, but also on a different machine?
I studied this a bit further and it seems the console may use a different input language settings. AutoHotkey sends a virtual key-code based on the character / and the console interprets it as the wrong character.
Try this

Try this
Code: Select all
Send, {Text}start "" /realtime ""
Send, {Left}
Oh wow, this worked! Thanks! Talk about a devil in the details...Marko wrote: ↑Aug 17th, ’20, 16:45 I studied this a bit further and it seems the console may use a different input language settings.
