I would actually say that it's so uncommon, I cant think of any app that uses AutoHotkey that would want to access it as a CommonFiles Plugin.Īdditionally, AutoHotkey is such a small app (in bytes and # of files) that it's easy enough to package with any app that relies on it.

So, like jPortable, AutoHotkey CAN be a dependency of other apps like SciTE4AHk however, it's not nearly as common as a dependency as Java.

I think converting AutoHotkey to a CommonFiles Plugin is an intriguing idea and worth discussing to flesh out the reasons for and against it. This is a continuation of dansmith65's AutoHotkey_LPortable It is driven by a scripting language that was initially aimed at providing keyboard shortcuts, otherwise known as hotkeys, that over time evolved into a full-fledged scripting language. AutoHotkey (AHK) is a free, open-source macro-creation and automation software for Windows that allows users to automate repetitive tasks.
