Error with send text

[fablefox]

This is the script:

C# code:

Copy

var w = wnd.find(1, "*(mysql)").Activate();
keys.send(@"mysqlsh");

wait.s(1); //wait 1 seconds

// press enter
keys.send(@"Enter");



wait.s(5); //wait 5 seconds

// check ClusterSet Status

keys.send(@"var clusterset = dba.getClusterSet()");

wait.s(1); //wait 5 seconds

keys.send(@"clusterset.status()");

wait.s(1); //wait 5 seconds

And I got this error:

C# code:

Copy

System.ArgumentException: Error in keys string: var clusterset = dba.get■ClusterSet■()
   at line 23 in {removed).cs
   >>
   --- Raw stack trace ---
   at Au.keys.AddKeys(String keys_)
   at Au.keys.Add(KKeysEtc[] keysEtc)
   at Au.keys.send(KKeysEtc[] keysEtc)
   at Program.<Main>$(String[] args) in (removed):line 23

I got success with mysqlsh and automated press of enter, so not sure why the next string after pressing enter got an error.

By default keys.send expects key names, like "Enter". For text use prefix ! or keys.sendt.

keys.send(@"!mysqlsh");
keys.send(@"Enter");
keys.send(@"!var clusterset = dba.getClusterSet()");
keys.sendt(@"clusterset.status()");

Thanks, any reason why reason why mysqlsh part was a success? 

C# code:

Copy

keys.send(@"mysqlsh");

Because I have other code like this, and it worked.

C# code:

Copy

// login to mysqlsh

var w = wnd.find(1, "*(mysql)").Activate();
keys.send(@"mysqlsh");
// press enter
keys.send(@"Enter");

Because m, y, s, q etc are key names. Anyway, it's not the best way to send text, because depends on the current keyboard layout.

Thanks.

In the process of testing the app now that Macro Express Pro is out of business.

Great application. If it did most of the task I want, I'll chip in some donation.
