; AutoHotkey Version: 1.x
; Language:       English
; Platform:       Win9x/NT
; Author:         A.N.Other <myemail@nowhere.com>
;
; Script Function:
;   Template script (you can customize this template by editing "ShellNew\Template.ahk" in your Windows folder)
;

#NoEnv  ; Recommended for performance and compatibility with future AutoHotkey releases.
SendMode Input  ; Recommended for new scripts due to its superior speed and reliability.
SetWorkingDir %A_ScriptDir%  ; Ensures a consistent starting directory.

^LButton::
MouseGetPos, WinX, WinY, Winget
WinGetTitle, Winget,%Winget% ;<--- this line of code has been removed
FileSelectFolder, SWNT
InputBox,SWNA, Save redorded window name as?`nalso include the extension

Look at the example:

George: Hey Fred?

Fred: Yeah George?

George: What happened to the last guy that bad-mouthed the helpfile?

Fred: Banished to the *corn-field, if I remember correctly.

George: Yep, you're right. Poor fellow. :cry:

* = "Twilight zone" episode starring actor Billy Mummy.

OutputVarWin

This optional parameter is the name of the variable in which to store the unique ID number of the window under the mouse cursor. If the window cannot be determined, this variable will be made blank.
