AutoHotkey 1.1

AutoHotkey is a free, open-source utility for Windows. AutoHotkey unleashes the full potential of your keyboard, joystick, and mouse.

For example, in addition to the typical Control, Alt, and Shift modifiers, you can use the Windows key and the Capslock key as modifiers. In fact, you can make any key or mouse button act as a modifier.

Features:
· Automate almost anything by sending keystrokes and mouse clicks. You can write a mouse or keyboard macro by hand or use the macro recorder.
· Create hotkeys for keyboard, joystick, and mouse. Virtually any key, button, or combination can become a hotkey.
· Expand abbreviations as you type them. For example, typing "btw" can automatically produce "by the way".
· Create custom data entry forms, user interfaces, and menu bars. See GUI for details.
· Remap keys and buttons on your keyboard, joystick, and mouse.
· Respond to signals from hand-held remote controls via the WinLIRC client script.
· Run existing AutoIt v2 scripts and enhance them with new capabilities.
· Convert any script into an EXE file that can be run on computers that don't have AutoHotkey installed.

· Retrieve or change the volume, mute, and other settings of any soundcard.
· Remap keys and mouse/joystick buttons.
· Send keystrokes and mouse clicks to any window (without even needing to activate it).
· Launch programs, shortcuts, URLs, and documents.
· Activate, hide, close, or resize any window.
· Make a window transparent and/or always-on-top.
· Define magic words that when typed trigger an action.
· Create custom tray icon menus.
· Use a joystick as a mouse.
· Monitor your system at chosen intervals (e.g. close unwanted windows the moment they appear).
· Automate game actions using high-performance hotkeys and commands such as PixelGetColor.
· Retrieve and change the clipboard's contents, even if it contains files copied from the Explorer.
· Copy, move, delete, or change the timestamp/attributes of a collection of files and folders.
· Perform any operation upon a set of files and folders that match a wildcard pattern.
· Read, write, and parse text files more easily than in most other languages.
· Work with the registry and INI files using the included interface commands.
· Display simple tooltips and balloon tips.
· Display dialog boxes to interact with the user.
· Convert any script into an EXE that can be run on any computer.

What's New:

· Fixed a memory leak which occurred when the return value of an object invocation or built-in function was not used, such as file.ReadLine() or SubStr(x,y,z) alone on a line.
· Replaced the fix from v1.0.92.01 with a better fix, which also fixes k::MsgBox(),x:=y and doesn't break if().
