I'm just learning to use AHK, and I'm very frustrated by the fact that no hotkey commands starting with #, ^ or ! leads to any action at all. First I tried the script by Andreas Borutta for simple inputting of a selected string in the script -- no reaction. Then I tried a number of other hotkey combinations; still no reaction.
I have checked the FAQ and the documentation but cannot see that I should do anything in particular to get these commands to work. (The "ordinary" ::x::y script format works fine.)
