Have you got a lot of files, scripts and programs?
How do you manage to access them quickly? Desktop full of shortcuts? Huge StartMenu? Even then how do you open your ahk script (I assume by opening my computer and browsing to your directory).

Using AutoHotFile will save you a lot of time opening / finding / browsing your files and programs.
You can also edit a file in editor, show it in explorer or copy path of the file immediately, loosing no time.

Key features:

- "GUIless" keyword launcher working trough ToolTip
- - here you can quickly enter your keywords (files) and open, edit, show and copy path of your files.
- - keyword is made out of leading characters of file name
- - . (dot) defines end of keyword (keyword for Autohotkey.lnk = Autohotkey | a.Autohotkey.lnk = a)
- - If more than 1 file with same keyword is loaded, a group of files is created.

- AutoHotString
- - Keyword becomes hotstring. For example typing # + your keyword + {TAB} will open your file. ? + your keyword + {TAB} will show it in explorer...

- Dynamic Script Launcher. (Run script from clipboard or from an edit control.)

- Web Launcher. (Launch websites and web search)

- Quick Files and folder explorer / finder.

- Calculator.

- Windows hider.

- Auto update of files and folders changes. Create new file and it will be keyworded straight away.

- Profiles (Define groups of directory patterns)

- Favorits (Define favorite entries, search terms, commands...)

- AutoHotkey process terminator

Everything works/starts from Launcher (+ prefix) or by pressing defined Hotkeys.

Press CapsLock & TAB to start Launcher

Press CapsLock & F9 for more Help

Enjoy Smile
Download:
AutoHotFile.exe


These two ahk scripts/files will bee required to run AutoHotFile.ahk.
They need to be in same folder with AutoHotFile.ahk and will be loaded via FileInstall (trough pipe):
_File_Explorer_
_Auto_Hot_String_
AutoHotFile.ahk

I try to explain.

This program will speed up your work.
If you have 100 folders and 1000 files, how quick could you call up your file/program?

With AutoHotFile you can run programs, files, links, websites in a few seconds even if you have 10000 files and more.

When I use Windows Explorer and Startmenu and shortcuts on desktop it all gets very unhandy, very slow and just annoying, I want to have my file or program immediately.

AutoHotkey is incredible.
Hope to hear some suggestions soon

Die websuche ist auf Deutsch. {google.de}
Quote:
If you like to have a different page for web search
search for that text:
"http://www.google.de/search?hl=de&q=%#__OUT_RUN_VAR__cut%&meta="
and replace "google.de" to "google.co.uk" or "google.com".
- YOU CAN ALSO: replace complete text with another website.
- HOW TO?
- search on a website for example for autohotkey
- for example on yahoo you will see following text in the address bar:
- - "http://de.search.yahoo.com/search?p=autohotkey&fr=yfp-t-501&ei=UTF-8&rd=r1"
- now you replace autohotkey by %#__OUT_RUN_VAR__cut% and replace the google one in AutoHotFile.ahk
- YOU CAN ALSO USE A DIFFERENT PREFIX FOR THAT, for example , or $ or % or & and so on, (- . : " *) are already used so you cannot use these.
- easily add additional "else if (InStr(#__OUT_RUN_VAR_, "&") = 1)" at that place in the script

Und die hilfe file auch, aber meinem .htm ist zerstort?

Help should come up in a new Notepad window.
Anyway, I will do a more proper and detailed help online soon.

Change #__SET__WEBBROWSER_ = in AutoHotFile.ini or AutoHotFile.ahk to full path of your webbrowser.
- For example
- #__SET__WEBBROWSER_ =C:\Program Files\Firefox\FirefoxPortable.exe
OR PRESS CAPSLOCK & RIGHT MOUSE FOR SETTINGS AND go to Webbrowser, Other browser
