Thanks a lot...

I hope there will never be such things...

Automating those in an easy way would be a very nice addition, but I think the core of AutoHotkey should depend on itself, and (not much more than) the standard OS install. Any nice add-ons, like a dll, no problem, I don't mind FileInstall, excellent... Isn't there an open source OLE library out there? That would cover most, right ? |
I'm OK. For me the goal is not to make an AHK "MS Office compliant"... But I think that ActiveX/COM are far more powerfull than OLE, and I think OLE is "embedded" in COM... I'd like to see the possibilities of AHK increased by the possible use of these powerfull techniques. I think that as ActiveX/COM are embedded in VBScript (or in WSH ?), the possibility to use them inside an AHK script would be a very good thing.
You see, we are almost agree... |
