I've spent a lot of time looking and Googling, but I can't seem to find where I can download the latest version of findtext.ahk
I very much need FindText(), so if you can help I'd be very grateful.

I found it has nothing to do with Notepad++. I have the same problem in any program that isn't run as administrator. Right now, this window in Chrome will not use AHK because it is not being run as administrator. I think it's something about Win 11. I think I have a generic solution: make a new shor...

If your scripts aren’t working with Notepad++ at all, it might be that it is running as an elevated process (running as administrator). Try running your script as administrator by right-clicking on the script file in File Explorer and selecting that option. I've been using AHK heavily for about 20 ...

I've been an AHK user for over a decade, and I have about 1500 lines of active AHK code, but I very ignorant compared to you guys. I don't know any OOP, for instance. Never even tried C or any of its variants. Hence my question: would it be possible to release now "Keysharp Lite," which would not ha...

Thank you so much for telling me where the discussion has moved to.

Oh-oh, this fantastic news seems to have died. What's the current story?

Yes!!! That's it. Did you learn this from study of the Help file info? (It's usually excellent but in some cases, like NoIcon, it doesn't give examples).

Thanks for the NoIcon reference. Looks great, but I can't figure out how to use Menu to control InputBox. Is that possible? Or do I have to make a GUI control to get an input field that has no H icon?

I'm using AHK to run a python script that will manufacture a password for me, and if someone gets my computer, figures out that the code is in AHK (which is dead easy to do, because the same H icon is in the tray--so he just needs to right-click and do "Edit this script") then he will have the key f...

I want to get user input without the user knowing that AHK is involved, for security reasons. Using InputBox, I can set the title to be innocuous but how do I get rid of or change the H icon? I have Resource Hacker, so maybe you can tell me what to change in that to get this effect. Thanks.

Alas, taking a screenshot of the text proved too crude to match. I don't know how else to get an image file of the text that will be pixel for pixel identical, so I'm pursuing other approaches.

Image Search is a really interesting idea. I'll give it a try.

It would be immensely valuable to me if I could invoke an AHK routine from another (DOS-based) macro rather than by the user hitting a key. I don't want the DOS-based macro to do anything at a command prompt. When it does that, it's a little slow and my screen gets messed up when it's done. I have S...

Getting AHK or AHK-lookalike for OS X is very important to both me and my wife. Has there been any progress?

I've looked in the (excellent) Help file, but couldn't find a good answer: how do I extract the content that lies between two tags. E.g., I want to get "John Doe" from a string that is: blah blah <author>John Doe</author> blah blah I realize that I could find the position of the start of <author>, a...

XyWrite is a DOS program that runs under NTVDM in Win7 32-bit. XyWrite is 16bit AT BEST (could even be, shudder, 8bit). So my workaround is to have the XyWrite macro prompt me to hit the key that cues AHK: alt-t. (I have disabled alt-t in XyWrite, so nothing will be passed to it). Since I don't know...

I have an AHK script that does a RegExReplace, and I want to have it called at a certain point in another script (a macro in XyWrite, an ancient word processing program). That other script can send text to the screen, and AHK can intercept actual key hits and be triggered that way, of course. But ho...
