To be fair, right ctrl had no use case to begin with.
Are you retards STILL whining about this?
It can be treated as a separate key in AutoHotkey allowing for RCtrl-specific macros. To me that's very useful in avoiding conflicts.
>>108971106>circumcised keyboardyeah no thanks
>>108971109I was genuinely wondering about the use case for right ctrl, but I figured I might as well shitpost about AI while I'm at it since this is all that /g/ does these days.
>>108971116True. Although I've never been into macros, I can't really think of any that I'd need to use. What are your favorites?
>>108971106Bro, your CTRL+C/V from home-row?
>>108971146I have no idea what you're talking about. Why not use left ctrl + C/V? It works just as well whether your right hand is on the mouse or not.
>>108971127I have many, wrotr a script I expand on as I wish. The most useful ones are the ones that only work on specific windows, so I can have different pastes for different browsers, websites, game specific macros to bind to horizontal scroll/side buttons, have Space spam for bhop only for games that need it etc. Also got a simple check to re-run Flow Launcher (super useful software btw) with it's own shortcut if the process died. As for RCtrl, I have RCtrl+RShift+Home as Media Play/Pause for global Winamp-like media controls. You just gotta have a knack for problem solving to leverage macro writing.
>>108971164Interesting, thanks! I definitely want to look into some kind of volume related shortcut, I'm surprised Windows doesn't really have one built-in by default (media keys aside since my keyboard doesn't have them).
>>108971215Actually, never mind, my keyboard does have a special function key that also works as volume control. I just never tried to use it in a combo so I thought it was useless. I've owned the keyboard for years. Pic related.
>>108971215Yeah those are some the most piss easy macros to do. Btw, you can do Rocker gestures for any program with #If WinActive() and ~LButton & RButton and vice versa. The ~ ensures that AHK won't "hijack" that key and let it through, basically using it as a soft modifier instead of rebinding it. It comes pre-bundled with thorough documentation.
#If WinActive()
~LButton & RButton
