Pause / Restart AutoHotKey text playback - autohotkey

Question

I have a simple AHK script that plays back text into an editor ( see script below ).
I want to be able to Pause / Resume the playback by pressing a sequence of keys.
I reviewed a few solutions here & at various AHK sites w/o success.
The script below should startup when I type Mike XXX ( and then press enter ) and should pause / restart when I use the Ctrl+Alt+P key sequence ...if I uncomment the Pause key sequence the script does not run at all ...any thoughts ?
