Ever find pressing scrolling through the F1 help documentation boring and useless? Well never ever you will need to do that, with this SciTE4AutoHotkey addon, you get instant help from your debug box at the bottom. Simply run the script (or autorun the script which I will talk about later) and Alt Click a line, a search will be launched you may find help! Interesting isn't it

. Idea was from kookster on the FreeNode #ahk IRC, so kudos to him! AutoHotkey_L is also required.

...is Simple
Run and script and press Alt Click on the line that you need help with.

...is Automatic
If you are lazy like me, then you can edit the AutoRun.ahk file in your SciTe4AutoHotkey directory (most likely to be at %A_AHKPath%\SciTE\Autorun.ahk) and add this line of code

Code:

Run, directory_to_where_you_saved_the_help_script.ahk

After you exit SciTE4AutoHotkey it will exit along with it.

Code:

#SingleInstance Force
#NoTrayIcon
#IfWinActive ahk_class SciTEWindow
#NoEnv
SetBatchLines, -1
WinWait, ahk_class SciTEWindow
SetTimer, GuiUpdate, 0
Gui, -Caption +AlwaysOnTop +ToolWindow
Gui, Add, ActiveX, vActiveX, Shell.Explorer
ActiveX.Navigate("http://www.autohotkey.com/forum/")

GuiUpdate:
If (WinActive("ahk_class SciTEWindow") Or WinActive("SciTE4AutoHotkey Online Help Documentation Graphical User Interface")){
   WinGetPos, WindowX, WindowY,, WindowHeight, ahk_class SciTEWindow
   ControlGetPos, ControlX, ControlY, ControlWidth, ControlHeight, Scintilla2, ahk_class SciTEWindow
   MouseGetPos,,, MouseWindow, MouseControl
   WinGetClass, MouseWindow, ahk_id %MouseWindow%
   WinSet, Transparent, % MouseWindow = "AutoHotkeyGUI" ? 230 : 80,  SciTE4AutoHotkey Online Help Documentation Graphical User Interface
   If (RegExMatch(MouseWindow, "SciTEWindow|AutoHotkeyGUI") And !GetKeyState("LButton"))
      WinActivate, ahk_class %MouseWindow%
   GuiControl, Move, ActiveX, % "w" ControlWidth "h" ControlHeight
   Gui, Show, % "x" WindowX + ControlX "y" WindowY + ControlY "w" ControlWidth "h" ControlHeight "NoActivate", SciTE4AutoHotkey Online Help Documentation Graphical User Interface
}
Else If (!WinExist("ahk_class SciTEWindow"))
   ExitApp
Else
   Gui, Hide

!LButton::
SendInput, {LButton}
ControlGetText, ControlText, Scintilla1, ahk_class SciTEWindow
ControlGet, ControlLine, CurrentLine,, Scintilla1, ahk_class SciTEWindow
ControlText := RegExReplace(StrGet(&ControlText, "UTF-8"), "`r")
InStr = 0
Loop, % ControlLine - 1
   InStr := InStr(ControlText, "`n", "False", InStr + 1)
RegExMatch(ControlText, "\w+", ControlCommand, InStr + 1)
ActiveX.Navigate("http://www.google.com/search?q=site:autohotkey.com " ControlCommand "")

it is a great idea but the viewing area is really limited.
may I suggest to change the last line to:

Code:

ActiveX.Navigate("http://www.autohotkey.com/docs/commands/" ControlCommand ".htm")

instead of google search!

You can drag box bigger too.
It is an option, but I think it would be good to search through forum posts too.

For several reasons I use notepad2-mod instead of scite:
slash " and '
join lines
selection moving in code with up and down arrows
easy swap word wrap/long lines
sort lines
bookmark lines

the only thing I miss, result panel at run code.

I downloaded your script and ran it. I alt - clicked on a line in Scite4Autohotkey and all I get is a google search for site:autohotkey.com 4

I tried Alpha Bravos suggestion

Code:

ActiveX.Navigate("http://www.autohotkey.com/docs/commands/" ControlCommand ".htm")

and all I get is page not found.

What went wrong?

I am using Autohotkey_L Ansi 32 bit.

Depends if you clicked on a command/variable that isn't a valid url.

Is there any particular version of AutoHotkey required for this script?

Tip: since you're using AutoHotkey_L, you might want to change:

Code:

ActiveX.Navigate("http://www.autohotkey.com/docs/commands/" ControlCommand ".htm")

to:

Code:

ActiveX.Navigate("http://l.autohotkey.net/docs/commands/" ControlCommand ".htm")

in order to use the more up-to-date AutoHotkey_L documentation instead of the old and outdated AutoHotkey Basic documentation.
