I’ve consistently found AHK to be so full-of-potential yet difficult-to-extract-value-from. I’ve never managed to get anything useful out of it.

- myfonj 3y agoThat's strange. From my point of view it you get lots of value in the beginning but there is some kind of cap beyond, that it is hard to get over. I think AHK has really easy onboarding, meaning you can get tremendous low-hanging benefits out of it minute after installation -- you open the help, do your first `::btw::by the way` hostring, map reloading the script to `^+!r::reload` and from this point on you iterate quite rapidly, progressively fixing your easily fixable pains -- but sooner or later, after reaching some level of complexity, things begin to get hairy, not worth the effort or even impossible. But as as say, there is vast amount of simple shenanigans you can make with basic AKH functionality, most of them you can even make on your own just with the help file.
