Sorry to bother you once again...

Even with a compiled Ahk2Exe.exe (compiled from Ahk2Exe.ahk and using a modified password),
whenever I compile a script from within Sublime Text and the script contains an error, this error
is not displayed in the "Console" (of Sublime Text) but within a normal msgbox window...

Any chance to return this kind of output to the console instead, if Ahk2Exe.exe is used from the command line?

Do you get any info back to console? Do you have an example script that returns output to that console?

Unfortunately, no (in both cases).

AutoHotkey (can't remember) if it was already called "_L" supported that for a few years and then changed Ahk2Exe to output errors in a message box as well.

In those times you got compiling errors directly delivered back to the console. Sublime Text could parse that output and you were able to click on an error and ST went to the line where it occurred.

the file isn't in the zip. you claimed to do #3 but obviously you didn't.

well you right!,

I renamed the file: "\ahkdll-v1-release-master\ahkdll-v1-release-master\Win32w\AutoHotkey.exe" to Ahk2Exe.exe.
now its working good :)

don't use the default .bin file. you have to specifically choose one of the other AHK_H .bin files from the list

I have improved anti-debugging features in AutoHotkey_H so protection should be even better now ;)

Hi!

I used your compiler and it worked on my AHK v1 script :) I have a few questions about the compiler.

* What does the password used in executable mean? what is it for?
* How do I know the correct .bin file besides trying each and every one of them?
* Why is the compiler using syntaxes from v2?

The Password in downloaded exes, bins and dlls is AutoHotkey. That is also the content of password control.
If you like to change the password you have to recompile AutoHotkey.exe/bin/dll using Visual Studio and source code on github, then you have to enter the password you used into that control.

In AHK_H you can compile exe and dll as well. The correct bin file depends on whether your script requires ANSI(Win32a) or is it UNICODE (Win32w+x64w) compatible.
What do you mean by syntaxes, there is v1 and v2 compiler included in the downolads.

Sorry about that, I forgot about v2 alpha. About the password, does changing the password improve the security of the compiled .exe in any way or is it even worth it?

If you want to protect your script properly, you need to change the password and recompile the exe, otherwise it is possible to extract resources from exe and decode it the same way how Ahk2Exe encodes them using the default password.

I see... But right now, since RCData was encrypted it at least adds a rough layer for common to techy people like myself from looking for other ways to hack the compiled.exe
But I know that if someone really wants to they can find someone to hack it, but who is going to do that. :D not even worth it at this point. IMHO. Thanks for your incredible creation :)

1. If you make a proper or even dynamic password it will be very difficult, there is always a way to decompile :)
2. Yes you could do but I an not sure what you can do. (obfuscation!?)

Yes, before you change password here, you need to recompile the source with that password as mentioned above!
