PushToToggle

A simple AutoHotkey script that provides a toggleable push-to-talk (PTT) functionality using the F8 key, along with a visual indicator by controlling the Scroll Lock LED. Designed for users who prefer a hands-free toggle rather than holding a key down.

✨ Features

  • 🔄 Toggle Push-to-Talk with F9

  • 🎮 Simulates F8 being held down (not just tapped)

  • 💡 Scroll Lock LED indicates PTT status (ON = active)

  • 🛑 Clean exit with F10, ensuring:

    • F8 is released
    • Scroll Lock LED is turned off

🔧 Requirements

  • AutoHotkey (v1.1 or v2 – this script uses v1 syntax)

⌨️ Hotkeys

Key Function
F9 Toggle Push-to-Talk (F8 down/up)
F10 Exit the script and reset LED

📦 Installation

  1. Install AutoHotkey

  2. Download or clone this repository:

    git clone https://github.com/Houssemamor/PushToToggle.git

  3. Run the script:

    PushToToggle/PushToToggle.ahk

📝 How It Works

When you press F9:

  • If PTT is off, it simulates pressing and holding F8 and turns on the Scroll Lock LED.
  • If PTT is on, it releases F8 and turns off the Scroll Lock LED.

This allows you to visually know when you're actively broadcasting, especially useful in voice chat applications (e.g., Discord, TeamSpeak, etc.).

🛠 Customization

You can easily modify:

  • The toggle key (F9)
  • The simulated key (F8)
  • Add sound notifications or tray tips for feedback
