AutoHotkey Community

[ZenKai]

Hey guys,

I just wanted to extend both my compliments and thanks to the developers that assembled this. This has become an invaluable tool in my day-to-day routine already.

I myself am a programming director, and have actually discussed developing something similar with my dev team for in-office use. Imagine how stoked I was when my lead developer bumped into this on Digg. Great job guys.

It is Chris (and some guys from AutoIt) you have to thank.

Welcome to the world of AHK.

If you can spare some hours of your programmers, you are welcome to contribute to this software to the benefit of all. Since I guess it has saved you thousands of working hours already (you didn't need to create your own software) it would be a nice gift. Thanks

I want to thanks Chris too, this is a fine software.

Should I have to make a library of similar functionnality, perhaps I would be able to do, say 80 to 90% of what is described in the manual (with lot of time that I don't have!). But actually, I wouldn't be able to match the quality of AutoHotkey which improved using the feedback of hundred of users, tested on as many different computers. This is invaluable!

ZenKai, if there is any functionnality you wish to have and don't find in AutoHotkey, you can ask Chris, of course, but he has already a mile high to-do list... Or you can put some developpers on AutoHotkey's code, and ideally give back the created code to the community.
Chris may or may not use user contributions, depending on the demand and the complexity (he doesn't like to bloat or slow down his software...), but in all cases this can be beneficial.

Note to Chris: I saw that your code is extensively documented, which is nice, but from a quick peek, I am not sure if the lexer structure is documented at higher level.
For example, should I want to add a command (like StringMid) or a function (like InStr) or a special variable (like A_OSVersion), is there a document indicating where to put the keyword, where the parameters are parsed, etc.?

Just dropping in to say thanks as well. The way I use my computer has never been the same after finding ahk. The productivity increases and hours saved in front of the computer are priceless

Thanks for the feedback.
