AutoHotkey Community

Hello, I would like to know if there is a way to set a variable in another script?

Example: I have a main script running, and want to run another script to do a task for the main script, I run that script from the main script, then want to set a variable to it.

Coding example for "Main Script":


Is there any way to do something like this in AutoHotKey?

I have already searched this board for help on this, and it returns too many results that are not what I am looking for.

I know of ways that I could do this, but it would be slow/possibly inaccurate. (Like writing to a temporary text file and having the script ran by the main script read it after the main script writes it to the text file before running the secondary script.)

Command Line Paramaters, or if you need to send it half way through executing Post/Send Message

Script 1



Script 2


Other simple ways can be used my apending files. using teh above method and then having the second script read it.
