I know it's in the planned features, but I think that with the functions and local/global variables (witch are a major ehancement), a good thing would be the Select ... Case structure to make AHK a near structured scripting language.

[Chris]

You probably know about "else if" already. In addition, the use of "in" can help simplify a lot of otherwise complex case ladders:

if color in purple,blue
....
else if color in black,gray,silver
...
else if color in red,yellow,orange
...
else ; This corresponds to the "default" or "otherwise" case.
...

I look at the above and see that although a case/switch construct would make it look a little neater, the benefit seems fairly low compared to some of the other things planned on the to-do list.

I do want to do it someday, it just seems like other things, such as more GUI control types, the ability to call DLLs, etc. seem more important. Contrary opinions are welcome.

Here are the changes for v1.0.31.01:

Fixed sub-expressions in function parameters yielding incorrect result; e.g. Add(2*3,3). [thanks Lazlo]

Fixed open-parenthesis being seen as a syntax error if used after a command that lacks a first comma; e.g. MsgBox (). [thanks Laszlo]

That's true... I must say I can't do anything else than to be agree with that, about witch I didn't think about !!! But I think the the Select ... case is more concise and more readable.

if color in purple,blue
....
else if color in black,gray,silver
...
else if color in red,yellow,orange
...
else ; This corresponds to the "default" or "otherwise" case.
...

becomes

Select color
case purple,blue
....
case black,gray,silver
...
case red,yellow,orange
...
default 
...

Thanks again for this major release.

I'm tying to download the v1.0.31.01. But when I install it, it says it is the v1.0.31.00 installer.
- Is this a problem of my internet connection cache?
- is it just a wrong number in the installer?
- is the download site not updated?

Does anyone have the same problem?

It must be due to the proxies we use at work. At home everything is fine. Thanks for the feedback.

Chris,
Just a little thing.
I just downloaded 1.0.31.02 and noticed that the help "recent changes" was not changed to reflect the changes.

v1.0.31.06 contains only a single change:

ImageSearch is now much more useful: 1) Icons are supported (even ones containing transparent sections); 2) PNG, TIF, ICO, and other image formats are supported; 3) Approximate images may be found by allowing the image's colors to vary by a specified amount; 4) Matching is a little more lenient because the mystery-byte of each pixel color is ignored.
