[Joe Caverly]

To open the TCC Help file at the keyword index;

*help hmkwindex

Thanks. @*help hmkwindex would keep it out of the history. F1 would be even better.

Here's an AutoHotKey script to use F1 for TCC Help.

#Requires AutoHotkey v2
;@Ahk2Exe-ConsoleApp
F1::
{
If WinActive("ahk_exe tcc.exe")
  {
    Send "@*help hmkwindex"
    Send "{Enter}"
  }
}

How does it work if there's a command line in progress?

 

[Joe Caverly]

You would have to modify the script to take that into account.

You could also write a plugin that would replace the functionality of the F1 key.

A plugin would be overkill, I think; a key alias would do it.
