AutoHotkey v2 Alpha Release
You know what I would absolutely love to see in v2? A function that evaluates expressions in AHK syntax. For example, here's a rather common format for a function that evaluates an AHK expression and returns it as a var
To the best of my knowledge, this is the best approach that we can use, and it still requires ugly FileRead/Delete/Append operations. Maybe this request isn't such a good idea since the string that is passed into the function needs validation to ensure it is a real expression, and not a command, etc. Just throwing this idea out here...
My deepest apologies if I have posted this in the wrong section.

v2.0 isn't about new features, but about making any compatibility-breaking changes that are deemed necessary. Your suggestion could be implemented in v1.x or v2.1+. Or you could use AutoHotkey.dll or eval().
Ah! Yes, I figured I may have missed the point of this thread. Thanks for the info! I'll post this in the suggestions section (I currently use and love AutoHotkey.dll, but it seems like overkill for this specific purpose. There are also many issues I've come across with compiled vs non-compiled).

I've got some questions on v2:
- Why will commands like Progress or SplashImage and so on be removed?
- When will it be fully released (estimated)?
- Will there be an ANSI version (I have to use a dll which is ANSI-only)?
Thanks in advance

- Progress and SplashImage are redundant. You can recreate those functions with the Gui commands if you like.
- When it's done.
- No. You can call an ANSI dll from the Unicode verison.
- Ok, then maybe I'll write my own function for this ^^
- I mean, will it be this year, next year or in 20 years? Can you maybe make it a little bit more exact?
- How can this be done? Is this also possible in AHK_L?
Thank you

#NoTrayIcon Return Test: ; AHK_H V2 DLL Call MsgBox Test Return
As I understand it per the doc at: http://l.autohotkey.net/v2-changes.htm
Scripts are "persistent" while at least one of the following conditions is satisfied:
- At least one hotkey or hotstring has been defined by the script.
- At least one message monitor is active (installed by OnMessage).
- At least one Gui is visible.
- At least one script timer is currently enabled.
- The tray icon is visible and its menu has custom items.
If the last script thread finishes or a Gui is closed or destroyed and none of the above conditions are satisfied, the script terminates.

Yes, the above conditions are not met, but I still want to continue running scripts. Thanks.
