Hi there,

I'm also used to send messages on Alt+S and would like to have a return functin on hitting Enter, instead of sending.

Last mentioned is not too important but I'm often hitting Alt-S and get annoyed that nothing happens ;)

I tried to solve that by wrinting a Script but the OnEvent_ChatWndEditKeyDown does only work for Ctrl, Shift and Non-System Keys. And Non-System Keys are defined as "not a combination with the Alt-Key". *grrrr*

On the other hand that means, that your Ctrl+Enter features can be easiely modified by a script.

Does anyone have a solution to get Alt+S working?
One may be to use an external tool to Set Alt+S to work as Enter.
Or have a new Event Handler that works on Alt...

You may be interested in using a global hook to detect key presses. If you look at my StatusKey script, you'll find the code you need (graciously provided by matty). I think it uses ALT-S by default for something ;)

EDIT: Linked to script
