AutoHotkey is a free, open-source custom scripting language for Microsoft Windows, initially aimed at providing easy keyboard shortcuts or hotkeys, fast macro-creation and software automation that allows users of most levels of computer skill to automate repetitive tasks in any Windows application. User interfaces can easily be extended or modified by AutoHotkey (for example, overriding the default Windows control key commands with their Emacs equivalents). The Autohotkey installation includes its own extensive help file with an always updated (web based ) version. ==Features== AutoHotkey scripts can be used to launch programs, open documents, send keystrokes and mouse clicks and movements. AutoHotkey scripts can also assign, retrieve, and manipulate variables, run loops and manipulate windows, files, and folders. These commands can be triggered by a hotkey, such as a script that would open an internet browser whenever the user presses on the keyboard. Keyboard keys can also be remapped or disabled, such that pressing the letter , for example, might result in the computer receiving a letter , or nothing at all. AutoHotkey also allows for 'hotstrings' that will automatically replace certain text as it is typed; the most typical use for hotstrings is expanding abbreviations, such as assigning the string "btw" to send the text "by the way" when typed, or the text "%o" to send "percentage of". More complex tasks can be achieved with custom data entry forms (GUI windows), working with the system registry, or using the Windows API by calling functions from DLLs. The scripts can be compiled into an executable file that can be run on other computers that do not have AutoHotkey installed. The source code is in C++ and can be compiled with Visual Studio Express. Memory access through pointers is allowed just as in C. Common AutoHotkey tasks: *Remapping the keyboard, such as from QWERTY to Dvorak or other alternative keyboard layouts. *Using shortcuts to fill in frequently-used file names or other phrases. *Controlling the mouse cursor with a keyboard or joystick. *Opening programs, documents, and websites with simple keystrokes. *Adding a signature to e-mail, message boards, etc. *Monitoring a system and automatically closing unwanted programs. *Scheduling an automatic reminder, system scan, or backup. *Automating repetitive tasks in online games (often in violation of said games' terms of service). *Filling out contest and freebie forms automatically (i.e., it can type in your name, address, etc. automatically). *Quick code testing before implementing in another (more time consuming) programming language. *AutoHotkey has even been used by doctors in the radiology world.〔(Tarik K.
