Code in AutoHot Key in other programs

10 Jun 2022, 09:36

Did anyone know that you can code in Microsoft Visual Studio Code with AutoHot Key's programming language? All you have to do is install the AutoHot Key plugin. The reason why this is really cool is because Microsoft Visual Studio Code gives you suggestions for coding and will tell you all the problems with it, and Notepad (the default app to edit the coding) doesn't give you any visual feedback.

AutoHotkey Plus Plus Extension to be specific, the original extension is extremely outdated from what I remember.

I don't think it's outdated. It has all the functions of the Notepad editor! Maybe I'm using a different extension, as there were two available!

There are actually a couple of extensions, just AHK++ has all necessary features and the syntax highlightning recognizes also some of the newer commands/functions that were added over time, from what I know.

Cheers.
