Daily Autohotkey
mahesh2k:
I don't know if this topic is posted already in some another sub-forum. I thought it's good idea to see what autohotkey apps are most of us are using on daily basis. Or apps made in autohotkey that you can't live without ? Just wanted to see if there are some good autohotkey apps that are missing from my radar or are worth to use to save time everyday on computer. :-)

Daily Autohotkey? Good idea ( i loved to read DailyVIM too)
-
One script of mine is to translate english to german.
I am german and can't english very well, so i use QuickDic (a little free portable app) to my translation aid.
Usually i do
- select an word
- copy to clipboard
- focus QuickDic
- paste in the word - read - and minimize QuickDic
Now i have handicrafts an ahk script to help me doing this more easier and quicker.
I don't say that this is done well, just showing an idea:
--- Code: Autohotkey ---; # Win, ! Alt, ^ Control, + Shift, RControl Right Control RControl & ^Q:: send ^c ;current selection to clipboard ;SetTitleMatchMode, 2 ;1: must start with ;2: can contain ;3: must exactly match ;SendMode, Input IfWinExist, QuickDic { WinActivate, QuickDic } Else { DetectHiddenWindows, On ;see invisible windows - zB um Windows im Tray zu erkennen WinRestore, QuickDic ;Un-minimizes or un-maximizes } IfWinActive, QuickDic send ^a ;select all for overwriting send ^v ;pastereturn
Hmm, it seams that the Code Highlighting for AutoHotkey is somehow broken?
So again in AutoIt:
EDIT:
ahh, i see the Code Highlighting for AutoHotkey is only messed up in the preview (with FireFox) and looks ok once posted.
Ath:
Why would you want to limit that request to AutoHotKey apps?
And there are several other threads on most used/useful apps already ;D

There's a numlock always on script posted by lanux that I have in my startup.
Here.

The only AHK app I use daily is Belvedere. I use it to clean out my Firefox "Downloads" folder. I'm a bit of a download hoarder, and I forget/neglect to clean out the downloads, so I just have Belvedere delete everything over 3 days old. Keeps me from getting confused, or using older versions for installs.
