Rocket TE end users can record keyboard events and save
the results to a file for later playback. The process of playing
back the resulting file is called playing a Script.
- From the Rocket TE menu bar, click or click the Play
Script icon on the toolbar.
The Play Script File Dialog opens.
- Select an existing Script file from the File dialog
and click Open.
Once the Script file is open, Rocket TE immediately begins
to play the Script.
Note: During Script playback all keyboard events performed
by the user is ignored by Windows. This interruption of keyboard
input continues until the Script is completed.
Recording
and playing Scripts is Rocket TE specific (i.e., the script is limited
to just the Rocket TE application and cannot be used to run other applications).
Some things to consider when playing a Script:
- Rocket TE Script playback speed is adjustable. If playing a Script
does not produce the desired results, try playing the Script at a
slower rate.
- Upon script execution, the Script Status window will be displayed
by default. This can be a handy feature during script development.
However, if desired, you can turn off the Script Status window in
the Script Properties dialog.
- As an option, scripts can automatically be played on Startup,
on Connect or on Disconnect.
Refer to Script properties for more information.
- Script playback can be aborted by simultaneously pressing the
Ctrl-Break or the Ctrl-Alt-Del key combinations.
