Re: [library] TF: Text files & Variables (strings) v3.8

Not sure that I understand what you're doing, and no doubt you can organise your code much more efficiently (for start define all variables at the start of the script or even in a separate file (CSV?) - not as part of each hotstring, but that is besides the point One thing you could try is replacing...

Re: [library] TF: Text files & Variables (strings) v3.8

That is most likely the answer - apart from any tab/space characters that might be present which you don't "see" directly in the file. Note that text files can have various line endings which may cause an issue as well (it could be `r`n, `n, `r, or a combination of these in one single file (if you o...

Re: OpenAhkXl - Automate Excel with native ahk. no excel need

the function for writing totally new file is not implemented. Perhaps this experiment is useful, you need to wrap it in a function/class yourself but the basis works. I took an empty excel file, base64 encoded it and store it in a variable (just a string) which you can decode using Skan's function ...

Re: open ahk (notepad) version through ahk Topic is solved

Your problem is the first line #h::#m If you want a hotkey / hotstring to perform multiple actions e.g. code block you need to have a return before the first command (or after the hotkey/hotstring) I'm assuming you want to minimize all windows before proceeding with the Sleep etc commands? So try th...

... to write a separate script analyser which checks for the conditions that you mentioned. Nice idea, perhaps someone will run with it.

Suggestion: A #WarnCompile/Log options Perhaps I missed it, but perhaps some sort of warning/log/hints could be added? Example could be the use of A_AhkPath which I tend to use basic menu AutoHotkey icons, which works on regular scripts, and compiled scripts as long as AutoHotkey is installed which ...

Re: remove lines present in both long sorted lists

The .= can become quite slow with larger variables, using VarSetCapacity() will speed things up, so
VarSetCapacity(nvar1, 10240000) ; ~10 MB should help
or try StrLen VarSetCapacity(nvar1, StrLen(var1)) (the new output will be smaller as the original so no need to go bigger)

Re: How to protect my AHK scripts?

I think AutoHotkey_H still has the /nodecompile option which may be enough protection (don't know how it works but no doubt documented somewhere on the forum)

Re: [Class] WinHook

I'm not sure if I want to use this but
1) how do do you know if a WinHook is already created (apart from keeping track of it yourself)
2) does it matter if you create the same hooks again and again; and is there a practical limit

Re: Itemlist extension

ItemList can be useful, it is often easy to build a quick list "item1|item2|item3" which you can easily parse using a loop or use for a "RegExMatch" or "InStr" to see if it matches a criteria - this library will make it easier to work with such list variables. I suggest you edit the first post with ...

How about a short example script to show what it does and which data it can process?
If that makes people curious they can use Google translate to see the descriptions for the functions.
