Re: Please add topic title here!

OK, I give: *how*do I edit this post to change the title? I can see how to edit other posts I have made, that happen to have titles. But I don't get the "edit" widget on this post. Is it possible that you don't get that edit widget on a post that doesn't have a proper title? or that it somehow gets ...

Seek AHK equivalent to Perl idioms that facilitate commenting out lines of lists/arrays/...

BRIEF: I like the way Perl makes ,comma optional terminators rather than required separators or terminators in constructs like ordinary and associative arrays. It allows you to put one entry per line, and easily comment-out an entire line without having to rejigger the syntax to add or replace a ,co...

Emacs Auto indent/format for AutoHotKey: ahk-mode.el problems, especially with OTB

I use emacs to edit my AutoHotKey code. currently using ahk-mode.el. Although this ahk-mode.el file is quite old, 2016, it appears to be the latest version in melpa. This version of ahk-mode.el has significant problems, especially with the OTB (One True Brace) style. short example just for if statem...

ctags/etags/... for editing AutoHotKey

Q: is anyone using some variant of classic editor tags support when editing AutoHotKey? I.e. what are the BKMs for such tags? Note: by "editor tags support" I mean not #tags or tagging as in this forum/board, or version control tags as in git, but tags that a program editor can use in order to take ...

Re: Dealing with Display Scaling

BTW, I should have responded long ago: No, the DllCall SetCursorPos does *not* cure the problem reliably. I swear that sometimes it does... I had given up on both MouseMove and the SetCursorPos DllCall for most of the interval between my initial post and last week. Tried using SetCursorPos - it seem...

Has anyone wrapped (almost) all AHK commands (for testing)?

BRIEF: E.g. a class AHK_interface that has methods like send(...) and click(...) and sleep(...), with derived classes that do things like AHK_if_logging, AHK_if_cross_checking, AHK_if_perf, AHK_if_replay_testing, ... ---+ DETAIL: I have written enough AutoHotKey code, and I depend on it so much[*], ...

Re: Voice recognition to AHK

I'm looking for a dependable way to send commands via voice/speech recognition which is then recognized by AHK. Did anybody reply to this already? If so, I haven't seen the reply, although I would like to. Anyway, I do most of my work using voice recognition, Nuance Dragon, on Microsoft Windows. Ov...

Dealing with Display Scaling

Right now I am tweaking some "scroll using trackball" code, but this problem is generic, has occured in many other places. I frequently use multiple displays with quite different sizes, pixel counts, and display scalings. For example, I am typing this with my Surface Book laptop plugged in to 3 exte...

Re: GUI - want WindowID of active window *before* button is pressed

Many thanks, @noname. I think that I will chase the WS_EX_NOACTIVATE 0x08000000L first, since I think it is more likely to be safe than the activated window history. Although anything that involves asynchronous window activations is possibly a security problem. Below I post some details for anyone e...
