Living without AutoHotkey - possible?

<< < (5/15) > >>

Cpilot:
I've looked at Autohot Key and Autoit and found them both somewhat useful but limited.
FBSL blows em both out of the water. GUI, COM, CGI,easy API access, speed and general utility makes it a hands down superior scripting language.

mouser:
nice find cpilot.  is there a web page for this project where one might read more or is it all just in the forum?

Actually the project is freeware and is still in the "building" phase. So everything is basically contained in the forum...including download instructions. Which you can find here.
API access and COM are important to me and this scripting language allows you to follow the MSDN doc's pretty close making API access especially easy.
I have used this scripting language for almost 2 years and have watched it evolve into a very powerful tool.

For those who don't wish to commit and yet would like to try it out there is an online version of the compiler available to experiment with:
FBSL Studio

You can write scripts online and then compile for use on your machine.

Really? You misspelled both program names ;)

So after 2 years they

* don't even have a site with tutorials and a great documentation like you'll find on http://www.autohotkey.com/ ?
* aren't listed in the wikipedia - check http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AutoHotkey to compare
* don't have much Google coverage
* still have a typo in their headline (the program name itself!) on http://www.fbsl.net/phpbb2/ ?
I'll stick with AutoHotkey..

:Thmbsup: :-*

Both being eminently forgettable I'm sure you'll understand.

Item 1

Documentation and Tuts come with the download, and lots of great examples exist on the forum. Not just BS about "what I did today".
If you can't use it based on the help file it's probably not for you anyway.

Item 2

I'm sorry the only place you can get information is from wikpedia, in case you were unaware there is a whole web out there.

Item 3

Thanks for the tip I'll get it corrected.

I'll stick with AutoHotkey..

See item 1, second sentence.

For any one else out there, your welcome to take a look, give it a try and ask questions.  :)
