downloading & launching a ahk script

16 Feb 2017, 08:04

i often update my home ahk script, which i also tend to use at another workplace.

an efficient way to ensure the latest version of my default script is being used would be to store it online. have a [locally stored] ahk script download this latest [cloud] version first, and then execute it.

would you know if there is a way of doing this?

thank you.

UrlDownloadToFile
Run

Personally, I would use Dropbox instead.

bigdeal, of course there is. Why modify the script (thus making a new version) other than to make it better?
