Time since last user input

I would like my server scripts to pause/resumed based on last user interaction/input. I found this but how do I define the size of the structure?

Get mouse history

Would it be possible to implement this: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/window ... vepointsex

[added 15.0.23] Run command, capture STDOUT

It would be really great if we could capture the STDOUT from a run command instead of having to rely on piping it to the clipboard or an external file. Something like this: Let>RP_CAPTURE_STDOUT=1 RunProgram>wmic path Win32_OperatingSystem get LastBootUpTime //RP_STDOUT=20201202082216.500000+060 Thi...

The CF_RESULT_CODE was equal to 183 (0xB7) which told me that the MAX_PATH was exceeded. I think this should b...

Parsing bug when having comments and/or nested IF's?

This is part of a bigger script but I want to show what appears to be a bug. Please look at the linked GIF. https://i.ibb.co/PYHQCTP/animation.gif I demonstrate the issue with this code.
