I currently have a trigger set up to do a few things (save window positions and start screensaver) when the PC locks. I have a console-based Pandora player that I would love to pause as well when the PC locks. Any ideas? Some sort of scripted routine? The window title always starts with "Pianobar" and I'd like to send it a "p" for pause. Thanks.

You can try this script and see if it works, it will search for Window Text that starts with "Pianobar" and then sends a P input to that window.

This should work also. While researching this yesterday, I dusted off my AHK skills (or lack thereof) and crafted a small exe that accomplishes what I need. Thank you for replying. I always recommend your software to others.
