Script File Variables
Eleven string variables can be used within the
string
above.
These are used to include special characters within the string.
Variable
Description
\a
alert (normally creates a beep)
\b
backspace
\f
form feed
\n
new line
\r
carriage return
\t
horizontal tab
\v
vertical tab
\?
Literal question mark
\’

\”

•
Quote characters are special characters.
•
Because each of these variables starts with a backslash,
the backslash character ( \ ) is also a special character.
As an example, to send the string "User Name" (including the
quotes), the script file entry should be as follows:
send "\"User Name\""
