Re: AHK(v2) rebranding [Name Suggestions]

I have updated the list. @Eedis: I did not add any of the lexikos related suggestions since Lexikos seems not to like this. I hope you are fine with that. For those who wonder what speaks against Autohotkey2 (or any other direct super seeding of AHK) can find some arguments here . That being said, t...

Re: AHKv2 - Platform independent?

i feel like if you want this, just continue with IronAHK The problem with IronAHK is that Lexikos seems not to be interested to move his development focus to it or C# in general (which is sad). Two code bases for AHK will be very contra-productive, I guess everyone agrees on that. Since AHK lives i...

Re: AHKv2 - Platform independent?

stripping out window controls would greatly reduce the appeal in an enterprise use. in fact it is one of the things that separates it from many other languages We won't loose anything, it will work for Windows as it has before. But basic scripts dealing with files / folders (which is very popular i...

Re: AHK(v2) rebranding [Name Suggestions]

Thanks for all the new proposals, I have integrated them. Gio, could you probably elaborate on the term "Apps". I do not really see how a plural form makes sense in a languages name. "I have written an EasyNewApps Script today." :lol: ahk. Try harder. :mrgreen: That an actual re-branding happens is ...

Re: AHKv2 - Platform independent?

Zelio, I agree that a platform independent language may split the community at some point. However, at least at the syntax level, this decision has to be made now. (Or it won't happen in AHKv2) You are pointing out the very core problem: Solving automation of window/window manager on an abstract lev...

AHKv2 - Platform independent?

This thread is about the question if AHK(v2) should support multiple platforms. Since this is a more technical question and also produces more work, it is merely addressed to current and potential AHK developers. AHKv2 Language -The command structure of AHK(v2) has some windows specific commands. (D...

Re: AHK(v2) rebranding [Name Suggestions]

Thanks for your suggestions. :) @Blackholyman: While I don't want to be an authority which filters any suggestion, a few comments to your names anyway: - Firstly, I like the idea of "HOT" in general :) - HOTv2 and HOT++ suggest a superseding of HOT, yet there is no HOT to supersede. - WinHOT clearly...

To reduce random shout-outs of new brand names, I have created a pool where we can collect new names: http://auto-hotkey.com/boards/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=214 Be creative NOW!

AHK(v2) rebranding [Name Suggestions]

In case of a rebranding, a new brand name is required. The idea is to collect all suggestions here, and also to summarize the benefits/drawbacks of certain approaches, like having relations to AHK. (Other mods/admins may edit this post to update the list.) Superseding of AHK ahk2 AHKv2 AHKpp AHK++ ...

Re: Permanent Domain

Hoppfrosch, I think everyone agrees that Lexikos would be the best fit to lead the community, yet he has no interest in doing so. I can understand this decision very good, all this politics and bad blood is not really something you want to have in your hobby. :) That being said, I just pointed out p...

Re: Permanent Domain

If/When Lexikos makes this the official site for his future releases, then it will actually be autohotkey.com competing against this site, not the other way around. Autohotkey.com could still direct link to the current AHK Installer. I'd like to elaborate on the issue with direct competition of aut...

Re: Permanent Domain

Dear all, I am very impressed to see all this engagement to retain the spirit of AHK and risking this huge step. Kudos to tank! The direction into a foundation hits the spirit of AHK perfectly. Some words about domains. Generally, the shorter a domain name, the better. Since the abbreviation AHK has...
