I actually just downloaded AutoIt because I thought it would be a simple way to setup a bot scenario for this MMORPG I play. I just wanted a macro to keep "hitting" a key on on a keyboard (you know make the game think that key is being hit) ...mostly just to keep from abusing my keyboard.
That said I can't make head or tells of the autoit's websites documentation efforts. It's about the worst documentation I've ever seen... not for being scant, but for being completely unfocused and unpractical at every turn.
I have to admit, it's "Lexer" that seems to be somewhat fluent in so many programming grammars is interesting to me / that is a problem domain I'm interested in, and AutoIt is opensource. However I just want to make it do something, and by god I have no clue after like 20mins of how to go about making it do anything.
If I could find the so called "recorder" mentioned here (https://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/scite/main.shtml) ...I'm thinking surely I could figure that out. But there is no such application on the website. I might assume it's part of the extended editor (https://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/sci...oads.shtml) but there is no mention of it on that page either.
Grumble grumble...
