I would like to have documentation I could read offline. Instead of printing each individual help topic it would be nice to have the documentation as a downloadable doc file. Any help would be appreciated.
THanks in advance.

If you prefer the HTML files, you can use something like HTTrack to download the whole manual at once.
No mean to get all the manual as a single file to print out... It would make a nice book.

Err the help file is downloadable in an offline format -- it's called 'AutoHotkey Help File.chm' and is located in the same directory as your AutoHotkey installation folder. Windows CHM has all the indexing, bookmarking and printing facilities you need aswell - its all wrapped up in one neat package Smile

I meant a single HTML file. I don't think you can print the whole CHM file at once! The advantage of the HTML files is that you can merge them if you want.
I knew there were CHM decoders (the freeware in the given link is curiously named CHM Encoder), but I was lazy to search... Thanks for the link.
