AutoRecord for NCH SoundTap

I wanted soundtap to keep recording after a song was done playing on YouTube so thus AutoRecord tool was made

program autorec;
(*
This code is very simple. It enumerates all window handles to find the button
with classname "Button" and window text "Start Recording" if it doesnt find it
at the first attempt it will open soundtap and try again. After all of that it
looks to see if the window text not equals "Stop Recording" once that is true
it will send a BM_CLICK message to that button and then repeats that process
until the button handle is no longer valid.
*)
{$apptype console}
{$Resource autorec-data.res}
uses
  SysUtils,messages,
  windows,shellapi;

var RecordBTN:hwnd;
seError:hinst;
rs:dword;
recordcap:array[0..255]of char;
hk:hkey;
soundtap_exe:array[0..max_path]of char;
function findbutton(hw:hwnd;lp:lparam):bool;stdcall;
var classn,wndtext:array[0..255]of char;
begin
result:=true;
getclassname(hw,classn,255);
getwindowtext(hw,wndtext,255);
if(comparetext(wndtext,'Start Recording')=0)and(comparetext(classn,'Button')=0)
then begin recordbtn:=hw;result:=false;exit;end;
//enumchildwindows(hw,@findbutton,1);
end;
procedure buttonClicked(hw:hwnd;umsg:uint;dwdata:dword;lresult:lresult);stdcall;
asm
nop
end;

begin
recordbtn:=getdesktopwindow;
writeln('delphijustin Autorecord for soundtap v1.0');
writeln('Not created by NCH Software');
writeln('Searching for record button...');
enumchildwindows(getdesktopwindow,@findbutton,0);
if recordbtn=getdesktopwindow then begin
//if first attept fails try launching SoundTap
regopenkeyex(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,'SOFTWARE\NCH Software\SoundTap\Settings',0,
key_read,hk);//Open soundtap registry key and query install path
rs:=sizeof(soundtap_exe);
if regqueryvalueex(hk,'InstallerPath',nil,nil,@soundtap_exe,@rs)<>error_success
then begin writeln('Could not find SoundTap');regclosekey(hk);exitprocess(1);
end;//end if regqueryvalueex
regclosekey(hk);seError:=shellexecute(0,nil,strcat(soundtap_exe,'\soundtap.exe'),
nil,nil,sw_shownormal);if seerror<33then begin writeln(soundtap_exe,':',
syserrormessage(seerror));exitprocess(1);end;//end if seerror
sleep(10000);
//give about 10 seconds for soundtap to finsh loading
enumchildwindows(getdesktopwindow,@findbutton,0);//attempt to find the button one last time
if recordbtn=getdesktopwindow then begin writeln('Cannot find the record button');
exitprocess(1);
end;//end if second attempt
end;//end if first attempt
writeln('Button found. Handle is 0x',inttohex(recordbtn,0));
while iswindow(recordbtn)do begin//check window text until the button is no longer valid
sleep(5000);
getwindowtext(recordbtn,recordcap,255);
if comparetext('Stop Recording',recordcap)<>0then
sendmessagecallback(recordbtn,bm_click,0,0,@buttonclicked,0);
//so far SendMessageCallback is the only method
end;
writeln('Button handle no longer valid');
end.
