AutoHotkey Community

Just curious...

I am using it very much for little GUI-based Tools, but more time is spent in larger projects.
The only problem is that most of them are for (german) games. So I did never release something bigger here...

I voted for Other!...

I use this wonderful utility for a little of everything (except games! I do not play games..)

I mainly create macros and helpers for my games but I also like making GUI based apps and functions in my free time to share on the forums.

I'd also voted on "All of the above"

Thanks for voting (thanks to everyone else also) . I also use AutoHotkey for all of the above. Is there any particular task that you find yourself using AutoHotkey for more often?

Prototyping functions, testing algorithms.

I constantly use my keyboard enhancement scripts (symbols, accents, hotstrings), double right-click for my personal data entry to forms, hotkeys to frequent tasks, open recent documents, compute expressions – insert results into documents, manipulate clipboards, save screenshots under unique file names, run little AHK apps, like digital and analog clocks, calendar, mini editor/executor of small scripts, showing toggle states in the start button, shutting down unwanted processes, dim/switch off screen, start screen saver, scroll background windows with the mouse wheel, adjust mouse sensitivity…

I answered - Programming language -

But after thinking about, its a program i use to audimate stuff at work..

So, i use it as a programming langue & an audimation tool.

I've thought about its usefullness in games, but just cant break the moral delema to be actively "botting" my games.

Wow. Only 13 users of AutoHotkey?
If a few others could take a moment to vote it would be appreciated (comments would be appreciated also but are not necessary)

I chose because GUI is the main focus in my AHK activities. But I also use it for automating and remapping from time to time.

Or do you consider scripts like BBCodeWriter, ... more like the point programming language than GUI based?

I chose: Mainly for automating applications/games

But "all of the above" would also be applicable. A lot of my scripts cross over between automation/gui and hotkey functions, e.g, some of my scripts:
Alt-Tab replacement
Keyboard Media Keys (hotkeys) for USB Keyboards
Logitech USB Headset inline remote control (and managing volume settings)
Middle Mouse hotkeys for opening IE links in a new window, closing windows on their titlebar, etc - hotkey and automation.
PSPad Helper - a gui and automation.
Screen Off - Dim - gui/hotkeys and dllcall
Start Button Clock + cpu and memory bars - mostly gui.
Windows XP Hiding icons - automation of windows settings

I've also written some scripts for friends to help them use a few programs more easily, mostly by automation.

I think there's a bit of an overlap but that's ok. I'm more looking to see what the ratios are between casual use, moderate, intermediate, advanced, etc...

I voted for the first item, hotkeys and friends, because it is the real use I make, ie. automating small tasks.
Now, of course, I like to play with it, helping others or making small funny applications, like my TrueType header parser or the gradient titles.
Althought I haven't made big GUIs yet, I believe it is a good language to make front-ends to command line utilities, like the wrapper around PsExec.

Hi,
I mainly use it to automate bugging application.

At work I've automated our whole application (automated testing).

The more I work with AHK the more I value it.
