General Software Discussion / Re: ControlPad: interesting new launcher app

Hey 40hz (almost wrote 40cc, dont know why... )

Thanks for the detailed input and warm welcome.
The biggest problem with AutoHotkey is the lack of normal data structures, so I have many "globals"....
But I do not like what you are telling me one bit - it shouldn't do it, I hope I can reproduce here - nothing in the code (As I remember it) should accumulate data like this.

BTW - your screenshot shows a different font than default - its because you changed it, not because my font assignment didnt work right?

Hey 40hz, Danny from Sector-Seven here.
I just saw this link in my referrer logger and came to read your very nice review, thanks for that.

I believe CleverCat does not believe that you are not affiliated with Sector-Seven and I am guessing that the fact I reply here so soon does not help, but oh well.

The reason I registered here, in addition to saying thanks, is because your complaint about memory consumption worries me.
I have quite a heavy command file here, and ControlPad is taking about 8,100k

I bet I can reduce this even more, and 22,000k is definitely too high - it doesnt really store that much things in memory, as it access the INI file at execution time.

So, I will see what I can do to reduce it a little, and if you have any hints as for what is your configuration like, I may be able to reproduce and test where is that semi-leak.

Thanks again.
