AutoIt 3.2.10.0
|
AutoIt is an open source BASIC-like scripting language designed for automating the Windows GUI. It uses a combination of simulated keystrokes, mouse movement and window/control manipulation in order to automate tasks in a way not possible or reliable with other languages (e.g. VBScript and SendKeys). AutoIt v3 is a freeware BASIC-like scripting language designed for automating the Windows GUI and general scripting. It uses a combination of simulated keystrokes, mouse movement and window/control manipulation in order to automate tasks in a way not possible or reliable with other languages (e.g. VBScript and SendKeys). AutoIt is also very small, self-contained and will run on 95, 98, ME, NT4, 2000, XP, 2003 out of the box with no annoying "runtimes" required! You can even make compiled executable scripts that can run without AutoIt being installed! AutoIt was initially designed for PC "roll out" situations to reliably configure thousands of PCs, but with the arrival of v3 it has become a powerful language able to cope with most scripting needs. AutoIt can:
Unlike AutoIt2, the new AutoIt v3 language has a much more standard syntax -similar to VBScript and BASIC - and now supports complex expressions, user functions, looping and everything else that veteran scripters would expect. As with previous versions, AutoIt has been designed to be as small as possible and stand-alone with no external .dll files or registry entries required. Scripts can also be compiled into stand-alone executables with Aut2Exe. There will also be updates to the ActiveX and DLL versions of AutoIt called AutoItX - unlike v2 this will be a combined control (COM and standard DLL functions in the same DLL). AutoItX will allow you to add the unique features of AutoIt to your own favourite scripting or programming languages! Best of all, AutoIt continues to be FREE - but if you want to support the time, money and effort spent on the project and web hosting then you may donate using the link to your left in the menu.

AutoIt (and AutoItX) v3.2.10.0 released
WARNING: The next release of AutoIt will have the following changes which will break backwards compatibility:
* FileInstall() is being rewritten from the ground up. The FileInstall() function will be retained but will not function in the same way. The new implementation will appear in future beta releases.
* GUIConstants.au3 is being made redundant; it will be identical to GUIConstantsEx.au3. The easiest way to support this change is to replace all instances of GUIConstants.au3 with GUIConstantsEx.au3, then run Au3Check and include other constants files until the errors go away. This change can be made now and does not require waiting on a future beta version. At some point during the next beta cycle, GUIConstants.au3 is simply going to becoming identical to GUIConstantsEx.au3, at which point scripts using GUIConstants.au3 may or may not stop working depending on which constants are being used.
