AutoScriptWriter was dropped from the installation package with v1.1, around 2010 (when AutoHotkey_L became the main development branch). The last AutoHotkey version to contain it was 1.0.48.05. () You grab the ASW exe from inside the zip. I'm pretty much an AHK noob: I only tinker with it for very simple functions maybe once or twice a year.

It was put in for future development that never came to fruition. A Record sets a hook that monitors your actions and susequently writes an autoit script. Dane Trethowan. Reviews this replacement of the CCRadio 1. He explains that the analog TV channel selection has been replaced with a two meter ameture radio band. And other instructors and students explain the benefits of this environment for learning and getting certified in networking.

So I've kept a copy of ASW around and use it to give me the basic structure of a script, which I can then edit and refine. Much easier than trying to create everything from scratch manually for the simple automation tasks I typically create. Hmm, lemme think. I was introduced to AHK via MMO gaming.

MMOs often kick you offline for idling too long (sometimes as short as 5-10 minutes) and getting back online can involve long queues in the weeks following a game's release. So my first AHK script simply moved my game character every minute to bypass the kick timer, so I could grab a quick sandwich and toilet break without having to run back to the screen every 2 minutes! Games occasionally involve some absurd keypress repetition, or long mouse-driven sequences that don't have a built-in keyboard shortcut. I don't want to cheat and hack or 'bot' the games, so AHK is my carpal tunnel savior there. Outside of that, I used it for automating repetitive admin tasks when I was helping maintain a phpBB forum.

(Lots of radio buttons, checkboxes, and confirmation dialogs to click all over the page.) I've occasionally used it for large file operations that involve several programs in sequence, and that can't really be achieved by batch files. (Can't think of any specific examples as these have all been one-offs.) My favorite is pretty simple, though.

I spend a lot of time in Excel so I found a script that allows horizontal scrolling in Excel using Shift+Mousewheel (replicating OSX functionality, which I have at the office). Tilt wheels are handy but not as convenient as Shift+Mousewheel for navigating large spreadsheets.; requires AutoHotkey_L +WheelUp::ComObjActive('Excel.Application').ActiveWindow.SmallScroll(0,0,0,3) +WheelDown::ComObjActive('Excel.Application').ActiveWindow.SmallScroll(0,0,3,0) Sadly we have Macs at the office so most of my use for AHK is at home and therefore not so work-oriented! Everything's in its own script for now, mainly because they aren't things I need on a daily basis.

Then a single script would make sense. But since I use AHK at home for a lot of one-offs and game-related macros (where I really don't want it consuming extra key combos all the time), I just fire them up individually as needed. Actually I have a little Quick Launch toolbar (you know, the thing nobody has used since WinXP;) ) sitting in the taskbar beside the system tray. It's minimized so no icons are showing, and acts as a kind of mini-Start menu popup on the right.
