|
|
Would you use AHK to write a program as part of a business solution for a large company?
I have been asked to provide a solution to somebody, I usually use VB.net, but in this instance AHK would work better.
I am new to AHK so I'm not completely aware of its capabilities or weaknesses, I guess I want to know if it's a serious enough programming language to be able to sell to large businesses.
And are there any obvious reasons why this is not a good idea?
Thanks. |

Nothing fancy, I've just written something to rename .txt files into .csv. It's a problem a customer has been having trouble with and I said I'd sort it out.
I would like to use AHK if possible because it's clean and simple.

can do this also with a DOS command
I use AHK for everything (ok, lack of other programming languages)
-accounting,bookkeeping/database/convert/calculations/internet TV/Music search/search..... endless...
for a big firm I read big files from system and convert it to command files
save hours of time (and my eyes) and made no failure |
