Unfortunately, that will not work. FSO disables that command for security reasons but I guess a command line option could be added to allow using those functions.

The E:
Right.

AdmiralRalwood:
Why can't you just have an autohotkey script running concurrently that detects something scripts can do?

I don´t know how to communicate both scripts, my knowledge about this is very limited....

Can't you pass messages to scripts somehow?  I mean, a quick Google turned up this (topic is Lua scripting and AHK):  https://autohotkey.com/board/topic/6894-running-another-program-then-retrieving-a-value/

At the worst, maybe you could alter the contents of the file, and have AHK poll that file?

But I think the other guys here will have much better ways of implementing whatever you're wanting to accomplish.
