Hello,
I found a substantial BUG in my autohotkey-script !
I defined all the hotkeys as GLOBAL hotkeys. This meant The keypress was catched regardless of wich application
is active. Then I checked for a special application (PropTool etc.) Effect for other applications the keystroke vanished
in the nirvana = did not work anymore.
In the new version the hotkeys are application-sensitive. Which means in all other applications the hotkeys work as they
are espected to work.
Sorry for the inconvinience this might have caused. What have I learned from that ?
publish or share something ALWAYS AFTER intensive testing or remark it as an alpha-version.
OK from how much testing I have done so far version V1_1 is a "beta teenager"
in the attachment is the new script for http://www.autohotkey.com/
When you press F1 in a SPIN-file the manual is opened and a search is done for the word under the cursor
It works for the propellertool and for Brad's Spin Tool
Maybe you have to change the paths to Acrobat-Reader and/or Propellertool
Edit:
As I am a keyboard-freak (I don't like mouse-bumbing)
I enjoyed exploring AutoHotkey and added some functions to the PropTool-Editors behaviour
1) open character-chart on pressing Alt-v
2) close small windows (find-dialog Character-chart) on pressing ESC
3) search word under cursor (and ONLY word not word and ".", "+", "-", or whatever on pressing Shift-Ctrl-F
If you still encounter bugs or strange behaviour post a message
best regards
Stefan

Let me ask you, I learned programming on autoit/scite ... how hard is it to convert to spin or C for the propeller?
I took a short look into an autoit script
if you can program in autoit you know the basic concepts of almost every programming-language (like variables if-conditions etc.)
So what's new to you is only the differencies in the syntax between autoit and SPIN.
example in autoit you write a if-condition and clamp together lines of code by writing ENDIF
in SPIN you just INDENT all lines that should belong to the if-statement
no closing ENDIF
best regards

I checked out your 2 scripts, they were cool, I may use the hotkeys one
This spin has really taken me for a spin [noparse]:)[/noparse] trying to figure out the syntax differences. If there was a scite for spin, I would be great
