Download AutoHotkey 1.0.36.02

The developers of AutoHotkey have put a new version of the program online, namely 1.0.36.02. The new-fangled version is here as an executable and takes up just over a megabyte and a half. AutoHotkey is developed in C++ and allows you to put frequently used keystrokes, actions and/or button combos with the keyboard, mouse and gamepad behind a hotkey, so that the relevant action is performed in one go. It is also possible to convert previously scripted AutoIt2 key combinations to the AutoKey scripting language. Version 1.0.36.02 comes with seven changes. You can read what those are below:

1.0.36.02

• Fixed hotstrings to work when the script is displaying an InputBox.
• Fixed tilde key-up hotkeys such as “~5 up::” to avoid double-character output.
• Disallowed linefeeds (`n) and other invisible characters in variable names.
• Increased the stack limit from 1 to 4 MB, which allows functions and subroutines to recurse more deeply. Note: This does not increase the memory used by a typical script. [thanks Rubens]
• Doubled the speed of accessing empty variables (which are slow due to the need to check if they’re environment variables).
• Improved all windowing commands to support multiple criteria (such as title+class) to narrow down the search.
• Added built-in variable A_LoopFileExt, which contains the loop file’s extension.
