Of course I didn't write this, I just updated it.
User @Steely Wing also has a version of Window Spy for AHK v2 recently updated with new features.

... I've been wanting to mess around with AHKv2 for a while, but only a few months ago did I have time to really dig in to the installation, syntax, and everything else. I found this tool to be vital for me to find window information to figure out how to compose certain scripts.
I added some option, it would be useful.
