Example AutoHotkey Script.

Lazy Macros How To's
1

Here is a script I made some modifications to that will allow you to bind 2 different macros to 2 different keys, and will also detect if you are using a mod button.
Ctrl + F1 will enable and disable the script. In addition, the script will only run when WOW is the active window. Original script was from BackwardPawn back in 2009.

to use: copy script and save as macroscript.ahk (or whatever)
change all instances of 2 or 4 to whatever key you use for the macro.
double click to run with AHK installed. You wont get a message saying its running but you can see it in your statusbar.


^F1::Suspend ; ctrl + F1   ; Activate or deactivate script 
#ifWinActive World of Warcraft  ; Only run if window 'World of Warcraft' is active

	$2::  ; If 2 is pressed
	$^2:: ; If 2+control is pressed
