I want to make a program that automatically holds down the shift key for the first character typed in the message box, and that well automatically add a period at the end of a message.

Unfortunatly I am an idiot when it comes to programming.

I would think it would just be 2 very simple if commands. Something like this;

If <first character>.exist = false
Then <hold shift>
//and the other part
If <last character> /= "?"".""!"
then (<last character> + 1) SET <last character> = "."

If anybody is willing to tell me how to make this little thing your help is greatly appriceated, thanks in advance.

c++ or vb?

in c++ it will be someting like
strcpy(sResult,sCommandArg);
if isAlpha(sResult[0]) {
    sResult[0] = toupper(sResult[0] );
}
if sResult[strlen(sResult) - 1] != '.' && sResult[strlen(sResult) - 1] != '?' && sResult[strlen(sResult) - 1] != '!'{
     strcat(sResult,'.');
}

probably the first if isn't even necessary

Thank you very much, now if only my C++ thing wasen't a peice... (Thats what I get for useing a free one )

Is there anybody who is up for makeing me a little program?

I think you just have to learn typing correctly . It would be a stupid plugin I guess.

it would be better if it was encoperated into a bigger plugin

Can't fault your logic. But I still want one. Right now I'm pretty much up sh!t creek without a paddle just hopeing some kind soul well make it for me. (I hate being a mooch)

I coded an SPNG talker in JavaScript which will do what you want, so you can set it as an auto-talker and have it on all the time.

Seeing as it's in JavaScript and I've only ever done one thing in JavaScript it gave me a few headaches trying to get to work, but it does.

EDIT: Wait, I forgot to get it to ignore the dot if there's a punctuation char on the end, instead of just if there's a dot. Let me fix it and re-upload.

EDIT2: Right, fixed and uploaded. If the last character isn't an alphabetic char, it won't add a fullstop.
