Autoitscript: AutoMate your Actions…

Recently, I got to know this peace of FreeWare…

(thanks Marco … Pretty neat btw… !)

I must say, it’s pretty fascinating, other than Java, C++, C#, VB, it’s a different way of programming… , a new way, but hey, learing new things is never a crime…

Easy to pick-up, new possibility’s, and though so usefull….

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 all versions of Windows out-of-the-box with no annoying “runtimes” required!

AutoIt was initially designed for PC “roll out” situations to reliably automate and configure thousands of PCs. Over time it has become a powerful language that supports complex expressions, user functions, loops and everything else that veteran scripters would expect.

Features:

• Easy to learn BASIC-like syntax

• Simulate keystrokes and mouse movements

• Manipulate windows and processes

• Interact with all standard windows controls

• Scripts can be compiled into standalone executables

• Create Graphical User Interfaces (GUIs)

• COM support

• Regular expressions

• Directly call external DLL and Windows API functions

• Scriptable RunAs functions

• Detailed helpfile and large community-based support forums

• Compatible with Windows 95/98/ME/NT4/2000/XP/2003/Vista

• Unicode support

• Digitally signed for peace of mind

• Works with Windows Vista’s User Account Control (UAC)

AutoIt has been designed to be as small as possible and stand-alone with no external .dll files or registry entries required making it safe to use on Servers. Scripts can be compiled into stand-alone executables with Aut2Exe.

Also supplied is a combined COM and DLL version of AutoIt called AutoItX that allows 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.

And for the Vista user, don’t want to say , booooeeee, just thinking it , outloud, sorry… , it’s fully Compatible…

For me, the automating scripts of posting to different forums turns me on…

This will enable me making my own ForumPoster without logging into the forum….

When the time is right i will defently go into this freeware a lot more…

Just wanted to make a holla to other people who didn’t hear of this pretty piece of creation…

General settings enable the admin to change all day settings, like: adding , editing, deleting playdays, city’s, seasons, …

A external exchange between MS Office is also available,this for loading and writing team players to an Excel file …

An external exchange between MS Word makes it possible to make a formated list of all the contestants with there according virtual teams, and a list of all the virtual teams with there players…

This was a very good learning project, but it took a lot of work…

There are many more options in my software programm, as i have not mentioned a back-up system to a external FTP (also an internal back-up is available), a Triple DES pasword saver and a help file …
