Re: Need help about encrypt source code
I think the best way is to use AHK_H with a password when compiling it to a .exe file. You should compile its C++ source code with your unique password. There are step-by-step instructions on how to do that.
Re: Need help about encrypt source code
Even if you don't do all the compiling steps, AHK_H has 2 kinds of compression, built-in or 3rd party (mpress or UPX). Just selecting the built-in compression option will make the source unreadable for any of the usual and popular ways of trying to decompile it. Also keep in mind, that its all protection against casuals, as expert or professional programmers who are targeting your program can crack it. In fact, that goes for any of the interpreted languages (Python, C#, Lua, Java, etc...).
