I'm new to this site as is obvious..Maybe I'm just not looking but I didn't see a forum for AutoIt. I feel AutoIt is a useful side language.

AutoIt (pronounced aw-tow-it) is a freeware automation language for Microsoft Windows. In its earliest release, the software was primarily intended to create automation scripts (sometimes called macros) for Microsoft Windows programs[2] but has since grown to include enhancements in both programming language design and overall functionality.

With the release of Version 3, the syntax of AutoIt has been restructured to be more like the BASIC family of languages. It is a third-generation programming language using a classical data model, utilizing a variant data type that can store several types of data, including arrays. It is compatible with Windows 95, 98, ME, NT4, 2000, XP, 2003 and Vista (however, support for operating systems older than Windows 2000 was discontinued with the release of v3.3.0).



An AutoIt automation script can be compiled into a compressed, stand-alone executable which can be run on computers that do not have the AutoIt interpreter installed. A wide range of function libraries (known as UDF's, or "User Defined Functions")[3] are also included as standard or are available from the website to add specialized functionality. AutoIt is also distributed with an IDE based on the free SciTE editor. The compiler and help text are fully integrated and provide a de facto standard environment for developers using AutoIt.


I would also like to note that AutoIt can be used in Linux as well but as you know Linux lacks the .NET Framework. Meaning some AutoIt programs cannot be debugged.

Simple Syntax in my estimation..Easy to learn.

MsgBox(0, "Tutorial", "Hello World!")

I hope you'll consider this forum or sub-forum for consideration.

It is not a popular enough language (too general) to be promoted to its own area, you could see the Ruby forum and how it has not gotten off to a good start, even though it is a liked language in modern times. If you require any help with it you can post in General (this post's parent forum) and I'm sure someone will know enough somewhere to reply back, there had been questions before that were answered with AutoIT in the past here. A friendly note: your small font is not easy to read on some screens, I'd recommend sticking to default for accessability of all users.

Usually, we have references to AutoIt as a solution to automated scripting, but I don't recall any questions on it in around 5 years here.
