by the way. russian translation mostly inadequate

"capture key state" - translated: "захват ключевых государственных" - actually: "слежение за состоянием клавиш"

Most translations were made automated using google. If you wish to contribute with corrections, please download the lang file from sources in github and send the corrected file to me via email or github itself. Thanks.

Hi Pulover,

Do you have your tutorials published anywhere other than your website which is down at the moment?

Cheers

the image search function is not very accurate, did you use a lossy method like MD5 harsh ?

Hi Dravokivich. Yes, you can find them in youtube. I still can't fix website yet, but will try to put it back up soon.

Hi,

It only uses AHK's built-in commands for image search.

[Guest]

@TotalBalance see the first post on this very page, click the softpedia image in the very first post.

@pulover: could you add a few links to your top post?

- Click here for softpedia

As you can see many people don't understand how to get it while your website is down.

I have been using this program to put together quite a complicated automation package and came up with the idea of using notepad as a kind of progress tracker, i.e. notepad is opened and text is written to it as tasks are completed. But i do have one question and one (possible!) bug report.

First, the bug: the text i have set to be written to notepad (using "ControlSendRaw, Edit1, (LTrim Task 1 started.), Untitled - Notepad") sometimes capitalizes the first few character, and sometimes it does not. There doesn't seem to be any pattern as to when capitalization is applied and when it isnt.

Second, how would i automate notepad to automatically close and save the document without having to record mouse actions?

Hi,

You'll be better off using FileAppend command (it's among the commands in the 'Run command window') to write directly to a text file, instead of sending keys to notepad. This method is much more reliable. Don't forget to put a `n after each line.

Thanks for the response. I did consider that, but having notepad open on the desktop gives the user a kind of visual guide as to where execution is currently up to. I suppose I could do both, write to a log that is kept, and use the onscreen notepad as disposable progress guide.

In this case you can also use the 'Paste on control' option from Text Command window. I recommend you use FileAppend to create an empty file, open it using Run and send ^s with ControlSend to save the file.

That works perfectly, thanks.

Out of interest, would there be any way to record the system time at the start of each line, so that i end up with something like

28/10/2014 14:14 Execution Started?

Yest, with built-in variables: %A_DD%/%A_MM%/%A_YYYY%. Or you can use OutputDebug command along with DebugView.

That works perfectly for adding the date, is it possible to add the time as well?

Yes. Please, have a look at ahk documentation for built-in variables to find all of them.
