Thanks for a great program. I can't begin to tell you how much I depend on AutoHotKey in my daily routines. It saves me loads of typing throughout the day and eliminates a lot of typos....

I reviewed your list of planned additions to AutoHotKey and have listed my most desired features below. The most desired additions are at the top of the list.

1) A simple select/switch/case structure as an alternative to a series
of "else if" statements.

2) PixelWaitColor: Waits for a pixel to change color (BeastMaster).

3) Support hotkeys composed of any three keys, e.g. "Numpad1 &
Numpad2 & Numpad3::MsgBox You pressed all three keys."

4) Built-in context sensitive hotkeys (hotkeys that know to fire only
when the correct window title or class is active and/or exists)

5) Clipboard: support pictures and other types of binary data so that
AutoHotkey can be used to maintain multiple saved/virtual
clipboards (i.e. save & restore contents).

6) Ability to monitor a directory or drive for changes (file creation,
deletion, etc.)

7) A new timeout parameter for ToolTip that allows the thread to
continue executing while the tip is displayed (without the need for
SetTimer)

A built-in command to trim whitespace (and perhaps any chars of
choice) from the beginning and/or end of a variable, perhaps using
style similar to the parsing loop.

9) The ability to detect which part of a window (e.g. title bar or scroll
bar) the mouse is hovering over so that hotkeys can be made more
context sensitive.

10) A command to make a screenshot of certain regions or windows
on the screen.
