As someone who has been using Macs since 2006 and recently moved to Windows, I cannot recommend AHK enough.

As someone who has been using Macs since 2006 and recently moved to Windows, I cannot recommend AHK enough.
- ImaCake 4y agoI only have a single AHK script (I don't use windows much) and it specifically maps WinKey + Q to close a window and WinKey + H to hide a window. Windows is basically unusable for me without this convenience script!
- slig 4y agoFor me it was the CMD+` for cycling between windows of the same Application, can't live without it. Do mean "hide a window" just the CMD+H in macOS? How did you do it?
- WirelessGigabit 4y agoDo you have an example on how to do CMD (CTRL) + ` on Windows?
- slig 4y agoSure, I used this snippet https://gist.github.com/snmishra/794c5f41693510c46ba9bedc839696a8 https://gist.github.com/snmishra/794c5f41693510c46ba9bedc839...
- Fnoord 4y agoWould you mind sharing this script?
- Aachen 4y agoIt's one of the few things I miss from Windows as a Linux user. Some of it can be done using xdotool and other utilities, but nothing works the way AHK does.
- AnIdiotOnTheNet 4y agoWhich is kind of astounding for an OS that is supposedly about flexibility and customization. Something like AHK should be built in to every personal computer OS, but it isn't for some reason.
- l8rlump 4y agoHave you tried AHK for Linux? Discussion and link at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32654023 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32654023
- Aachen 4y agoGood to know! Posted four months ago, "first functional implementation", nope that wasn't around yet >10 years ago when I switched and missed AHK.
- Fnoord 4y agoYou can run AHK on Linux with Wine.
