I'm interested in hearing what you've built with AHK such that you're so closely tied to it, and by extension windows.

- anotheryou 4y agoI have plenty of uses: --- Keyboard layout: my whole keyboard layout used to be a remapping with AHK :) not done by me though and the new implementation of the layout is something else (https://www.neo-layout.org/ https://www.neo-layout.org/) --- Complicated Shortcuts: I still use it for generating and filling site specific mail addresses with a shortcut. My keyboard types "shortcut_site_specific_mailaddress" and ahk replaces it with news.ycombinator.com+is_allowed_to_pass_catch_all@mydomain.com. For some time it was also the one tool that could dim my dell desktop screen by hotkeys with some shady dll someone provided. --- Usability: I also used it for alt+drag for a while (but now have a more native tool with exactly that name). Capslock lights up if I am not in my native input language --- Stress Relieve: When mobile testing a lot in the emulator I got slight inflammation from clicking the mouse too much. If that happens I remap the left mouse key to the keyboard.
