This script exposes control of the pandora app to external keypresses It is a modified version of the script found on Chris DeLashmutt’s blog - Grog’s Blog
His version of the script failed to work with Pandora One 2.0.0, with a few simple modifications I was able to get it wo work. The script should be able to modified easily to change the hotkeys to anything that is desired, for more information check out the documentation at AutoHotKey

Download link seems to be broken.
Fixed, thanks for the heads up.
Nice job! Thanks for putting this script out there and packaging it for us.
There seems to be an issue with your script and it interacting with any Air based program.
League of Legends’ launcher is also done in air, when it is running your script attempts to sends commands to it instead.
Any ideas?
I’ve never tried it with any other AIR program, i’ll look and see…
I have a feeling it’s down to the fact that what i’m using to detect the window isn’t specific enough to Pandora One, but all AIR Windows in general (IfWinExist, ahk_class ApolloRuntimeContentWindow).
I’ll take a look and see if I can adjust it to play nicer. Thanks for the heads up.
If you download the updated version 1.2.1 is should fix this issue for you! Thanks for the heads up, and let me know if there’s anything else you come across, or something you’d like to see added.
