AutoHotkey Number Row to Numpad Remap Script

This AutoHotkey v2.0 script provides a convenient way to remap your keyboard's top-row number keys (1 through 0) to their respective Numpad equivalents (Numpad1 through Numpad0). This can be particularly useful for applications or games that specifically require Numpad input, even if you don't have a physical Numpad or prefer using the top row.

A key feature of this script is that it preserves all modifier key combinations (Shift, Control, Alt). This means that if you press Shift + 1, it will send Shift + Numpad1, and so on for Ctrl and Alt.

Features

• Full Top Row Remap: Remaps keys 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0.
• Modifier Preservation: Correctly sends Shift + NumpadX, Control + NumpadX, and Alt + NumpadX.
• Simple and Efficient: A lightweight script designed for a single purpose.
• AutoHotkey v2.0 Compatible: Written specifically for the modern AutoHotkey v2.0 syntax.

Requirements

• AutoHotkey v2.0: This script is written for and requires AutoHotkey version 2.0 or newer. You can download it from the official AutoHotkey website: https://www.autohotkey.com/

Installation

1. Download and Install AutoHotkey v2.0: If you don't already have it, download and install the latest AutoHotkey v2.0 from the link above.
2. Save the script: Save the AHK script code (provided below) into a file named something like NumpadRemap.ahk. You can place it anywhere on your computer, but a good practice is to keep it in a dedicated "AutoHotkey Scripts" folder.
3. Run the script:
   • Double-click the NumpadRemap.ahk file.
   • Alternatively, you can place a shortcut to the .ahk file in your Windows Startup folder (shell:startup) to make it run automatically every time your computer starts.

Usage

Once the script is running (you'll see an "H" icon in your system tray), your top-row number keys will behave as follows:

• Pressing 1 will send Numpad1.
• Pressing Shift + 1 will send Shift + Numpad1.
• Pressing Ctrl + 1 will send Ctrl + Numpad1.
• Pressing Alt + 1 will send Alt + Numpad1.

This applies to all number keys from 1 to 0.

To temporarily suspend the script or exit it, right-click the "H" icon in your system tray and choose the appropriate option.
