Has anyone made or is working on any code for using Windows7 features in AutoHotkey?

For example, taskbar progress, taskbar thumb buttons, and more importantly jumplists.

Also functions for checking and working with new things in windows7.

Windows 7 has been out for a while I would think there would be more action on this.

For those of you that can do the converting to ahk functions the following blog has some good insight into Windows 7 features:
http://weblogs.asp.net/sergeyzwezdin/archive/2009/04/30/windows-7-programming-taskbar-part-1-progress-bar.aspx

I'll try to keep this and the wiki page for Windows 7 updated. http://www.autohotkey.com/wiki/index.php?title=Windows_7 Some work with Windows Vista as well.

Thank you very much. I'll update the top post to include them and add them to the wiki. http://www.autohotkey.com/wiki/index.php?title=Windows_7

I'll add any others I can find but search terms like "Windows 7" are so genetic. The forum search doesn't even include the 7 in the search. And people frequently list their os when they have a problem so it becomes even more of a problem to find something valuable.

If anyone knows any more please list them here. Perhaps this post could get stickied (stuck?) .

Not sure if this is meant for questions, but I would like to know if it's possible to query/set the right/left-aligned properties of windows (see hotkeys win+right/left). I have not found an api for this yet, but I think it might be helpful for window manager scripts.

My question from one of the links is still unsolved by the way.

Edit: It would also be nice to know if it is possible to get a list of windows that belong to one taskbar group and find the index of a specific window. This would allow to create "Tab-Cycling" for programs which don't implement something like this.

I think I found some answers to my question above regarding detection of side-docked windows:

I agree, the search function in some of the forums would need an overhaul as they usually display the results which you are not leaning towards.

Thanks for your posts though, this will surely help a lot of users who are still, even at the time when a next version is just around the corner, learning a thing or two about windows 7. I

Automation of multi-touch would be cool if someone could figure that out. I don't have a touch screen, but there could be other inputs that could be mapped to multi-touch through AHK.
