I've been seriously wondering what it would take to make a cloud-based version of AutoHotkey. Imagine the range

of machines including chromebooks that could suddenly have all the power that AutoHotkey or it's clone-cousin

could provide. That would be some serious reach for a scripting language and could very well kick start a whole

new millenium of scripting pros. Wouldn't have to start big either kind of like what 1.0.48.05 kicked off.  Hmmm

Something to think seriously about. Lets see. what would it need to grab that kind of attention.

   Window automation

   mouse and keyboard hotkeys and shortcuts

   video controls like pixels and images

   math and logical functions

   cloud file storage and retrieval

   some kind of clipboard functionality

   maybe a simple gui construction kit

   sound and strings capability

   

Have to research the API's for what OS hooks would be required. Some form of Android tie in?

a cloud-based version of AutoHotkey.

 

Hmm, sounds like an interesting concept.

 

Could you elaborate a bit more on the idea? What kind of cloud services are you talking about?

I'm thinking of an app that is basically AutoHotkey that can be run similar to Google Script that can be used to write automation

scripts like AutoHotkey does now but can control the windows. I'm still working on gathering resources. Android programming looks

interesting and i'm wondering if it can be used to create hotkeys and hotstrings that could work on a diskless computer or android phone, Thank you for the idea about Zapier that is something also i need to explore.

Since a Chromebook uses the cloud and also has the capability of running a linux shell. I'm really getting scattered here. On the one hand i want to dual boot my chromebook with Ubuntu and Chrome OS and work on that and also to find some way of running AutoHotkey scripts from the cloud. OMG what

horrible choices... omg.... echhhhhh... i love it. maybe i'll just build a python version of a minimal Autohotkey thingy. (imagine an interpreter running an interpreter

. (crazy yes) been called that before.

good thoughts but i'm thinking more hardware/os independent kind of write once run anywhere (java stuff). Although

that will likely have to take the form of a whole new interpreter with bytecode output and custom back-ends for the diff

platforms. Lions, and Tigers, and Bears, Oh, My!

Thank you for the link tank. I've got it saved off to look over in detail later. This, in particular, is intriguing
platform-pillar which actually includes the native-client
along with some other really neat stuff. Ur a love!

Guess it's time for me to get busy with c/C++ again. All my tools are out of date. Time to start over with a new set
of compiler tools.
