Using ESC to exit the Trs80gp emulator ...

[krofftsuperstar]

Can't get Launchbox/Bigbox to quit this TRS-80 emulator via the normal "ESC" exit.

"ALT" plus "F4" is what quits Trs80gp when using the emulator -- on its own and also through LB/BB. So what script do I need to exit/quit it via ESC? I tried modifying the AppleWin script, but it didn't work. I've also tried many other variations to no success. THANKS!

Show what you tried with the AppleWin script. please

Sorry, just got home from work. Here ya go:

 

; This section closes Trs80gp when pressing Escape
 $Esc::
 {
     Process, Close, {{{StartupEXE}}}
 }

I also tried this:

; This section closes Trs80gp when pressing Alt f4
 $Alt f4::
 {
     Process, Close, {{{StartupEXE}}}
 }

Try this:

$Esc::
{
   Send !{F4}
}

Your 1st one should work.  But sometime programs are finicky.  This will send Alt+F4 when you press Esc.  (just hope the active window is indeed Trs80gp.

Just had a thought... Make sure you're putting it the "Running AutoHotKey Script" tab in Edit Emulator. (The "Exit AutoHotKey Script" tab is used only for exiting from the pause screen in BigBox.)Also, the "Send !{F4}", though effective,  is not very pretty and can be problematic.  If your 1st one was placed in the correct tab and doesn't work, scratch my last post ant try this: 

$Esc::
{
  WinClose, ahk_exe trs80gp.exe
}

Replace "trs80gp.exe" with the actual name.ext of your emulator if different.

Thank you so much for the suggestions! I'll give it a go in a bit and let you know the results.

Great suggestion to put it in the "Running AutoHotKey Script" Tab. I put the original script there and it worked perfectly; the emulator quit as it should. Feel kind stupid, but at least I learned something from this. 

Thank you again for the help!

Nothing to feel stupid about.  An easy misunderstanding. Glad it it's working now!
