Nice article and AHK is indeed a powerful tool. I create full featured guis all the time. I think the name really throws people off making them think it's just a hotkey tool when it is far more than that.
It's funny you mention navigating your computer; my next article is about the basics of computers that most of us take for granted: navigation (various methods), basic hotkeys, where common important folders are (profile, programs, system), etc... Knowing how to actually use a machine makes learning all the rest exponentially easier...
Cheers Ian. We might be stepping on each others toes a little :p I have a few more AHK articles to come. I look forward to your next post as I've only learnt what I've needed to solve the issues I face so I'm sure it will come in handy!
Not toe stepping, can't have too many articles about AHK. Not enough love for it, need to spread it around :D lol. I have whole series planned for AHK, Linux Shell, Python, and other scripting languages. I'm actually building a blog type website to post all my scripting tips and functions/classes etc, but I'll still be posting variations of my writing here.
Too true! I look forward to your series 😁. I've not hard much experience of Python but it's something I'm looking to get into as I'm told it's the "penknife of programming languages" and I've been looking into a bit of pen testing. Let me know when your site is up, looking forward to it!
