AutoHotkey Community

Hey Guys, I have been searching for a long time for a program that can provide a simple treeview like interface for managing scripts and scriptlets and maybe even additional files required by the script.
Have Tried: Syntree ** & Keynote **** And a myriad of CVS programs.
Custom Syntax highlight & CodeFolding plus export functions are what i am looking for.

If this is an old topic sorry guys, Newbie to this Zone Embarassed

Did you try Treepad (they have a freeware version)? It probably doesn't support code-folding/AHK syntax (I don't know).

If you are specifically looking for a program that can do code-folding and syntax-color AutoHotkey files, I guess you are limited to the editors that support it, I don't know of any program (like you are looking for) that supports AutoHotkey that way.

You could - of course - create something on your own in AutoHotkey that does what you want, there are already some (limited) scripts around...

However: if you do find some ready-made (and free) program that already works, do post it here. Wink

Thanks for the reply man, Tried both the free and the pro version of treepad and found them to be inferior to my current fave keynote, Which I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a program to manage large amounts of scripts and documentation.

I will broaden my search to FEE ware Crying or Very sad

I like the AHK script written by Rajat.

Scriptlet Library v4

Since I'm not a great programmer, if you do make some enhancement tweaks, let me know Cool

P.S. Thanks for the link to Code Repository. Impressive on a first look, I'll definitely be taking it through the paces.

Hey TotalBalance Cool

Hope you find it as useful as I have, If you or anyone trying this app have been put off by some of the errors don't be, I've found that as long as you enter: Author : ReturnValue & Code Type information in the reference panel when you create your repository it works just fine.

This is gonna be Quality when its finished! Twisted Evil

Hi Mobius,

FYI, I've stopped looking for a stand-alone code repository tool. It was actually another thread I was reviewing that created my "AhHa" moment.
It discusses many of the advantages of the open source tool "ToDoList" & shares a web capture ahk script that integrates with it (love the script).

I've been using this great time/project mgmt. tool for years but never thought about using it as a code repository. It's absolutely brilliant for this purpose as well. Especially when you take advantage of it's built in multi- user/source control features (by no means a full fledged system - but then I like things simple).

If inclined, check it out and let me know your thoughts.

Hiya TotalBalance,

Damn what a FINE program, Its taken most of the weekend but we have finally purged our existing CVS environment from the network in favour
of ToDoList. This Coupled with keynote Is exactly what we have been searching for!

Right now I see this primarily as a portable, lightweight, simple yet powerful Content Versioning System / Bug Tracker / Changelog .etc
Which is useful to both the individual and across a trusted team network.

But I might be swayed toward the script repository idea, it has all the right ingredients:
Commandline :: To create/add a new entry plus shortcut to an existing one and more.
SourceControl :: Prevent Unnecessary/Unwanted modification.
Columns :: Show as much or as little info as needed, The amount and types of column entries would lend themselves well to the ScrRep. idea.
And prob much more I have yet to discover!

As TotalBalance said "its by no means a fully fledged system - but then I like things simple" and I utterly agree.

Thinking of a simple parser script which may or may not be written in AHK to convert .tdl/.xml into Keynotes native .knt format. no small task! Idea
