With AHK you can't build modal windows. I don't know, why...
Care is advised when using "can't" in the same sentence as "AutoHotkey"
Seriously now, i use AutoHotkey for almost any task relating to windows. From programming full fledged programs with clients that run on multiple computers (DataBase managing functions enable communication between instances) to automating relatively small tasks.
In my company, i currently have:
1 - An application that manages a fleet of trucks (controling costs, usage and maintenance).
2 - An application that displays realtime workforce production of our main warehouse in a TV.
3 - An application that generates QR Codes for box and pallet labels (with info regarding expiration date, number of items in them, etc. to be read by a third party warehouse managing program).
4 - An application that enables data from excel sheets to be automatically entered in a third-party Human Resources program (inter-program automated communication).
5 - An application that automatically enters data from the same excel sheets to another third-party program that handles the company obligations (to automatically schedule workforce payments).
6 - An application that displays the location of clients in Google Earth for the logistics department to control their delivery routes (they have filters to select clients in the same route, etc). Clients are displayed with all kinds of usefull logistic information (route, address, phone, etc).
7 - An application that displays truck paths retrieved via GPS in Google Earth (to compare with client locations, etc).
8 - An applications that displays the location of clients in Google Earth for the commercial team (with filters to select number of orders, ammount ordered in a period, etc).
9 - An application that control the stocks on our secondary warehouse.
10 - An application that controls accounting.
And some tons of other small scripts that i use only in my computer for a multitude of small tasks
