Make AutoHotKey ignore Alt as menu key

Question

I\'m trying to use autohotkey to simulate elements of Mac keyboard on a PC (Windows) keyboard. My muscle memory reaches for the Command key for simple tasks like copying and pas

Answer 1

It sounds like you need the wildcard modifier. This will make it so if your hotkey is pressed in conjunction with another key. The mapping still works. Give the following a try:

*LAlt::LCtrl

This will make Alt fire Ctrl for any Alt+Key combination.
