Hi all.

I´m a pretty big noob with AHK and want to achieve the following.

I have a software (Ongame poker client, if you want to know) with n windows (n = 8-16) that are minimized in the taskbar (not grouped together).
Whenever a window requires attention, it starts to blink in the taskbar. I want to open it, perform an action and minimize it again.
Only one window may be open at the same time, so when several windows are blinking and require attention, I want the others to wait until the active window is minimized. The windows that require attention need to be processed in the correct order (oldest one first).

So I want the script to detect blinking minimized windows and queue them and activate them for me (making the required action and closing the window will be my job).

It is noted that the windows blink orange/blue on my computer and upon minimizing are sometimes minimized as blue and sometimes as orange, so just looking at colour of the minimized window will not be sufficient to detect whether they need to be activated.

Thanks.
