Hi...I am curious. What is the underlying computer language that autohotkey produces? I don't mean the lowest level language (machine language or MS DOS). Is it C or C++ or perl or some other language? Thanks. Playfullscientist

As stated on the download page, AutoHotkey is written in C++. I'm curious about this mysterious MS-DOS "language" you speak of, though. Laughing

Hi...Many years ago (in an earlier time), I wrote programs in MS-DOS. I think I still have my MS-DOS manual at home. I suppose if you haven't heard of it, the language may no longer be in use. Have fun. Playfullscientist

You probably mean the batch file scripting language (*.bat). This is still in use today (I've taken a few jabs at it myself), but it is certainly not low-level code which other languages are based on.
