You need to run tests without any applications in the background and unplug your laptop and enable every power-saving feature possible. Programs like VSCode and Spotify and Chrome/Firefox/Edge are setting the global timer resolution via timeBeginPeriod to 1. See: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id...

There's a few variants of this code posted on this forum. Just wanted to make it easier to find for everyone. The goal is to turn CapsLock into a proper modifying key, and not do simple combos like CapsLock & q:: MsgBox . The good part about this is that the CapsLock functionality is preserved. Just...

Completely agree at how frustrating this is. I'm just using type(c) == RegExMatchInfo for now, but in my opinion an empty array with a default of "" should fix most errors like v[1]. Also Lexikos might make it unset because that should be the default return value for v2.1

For posterity, I'll leave a copy of my Base64Encode / Base64Decode for AutoHotkey v2 (ahk v2) here: jNizM I managed to solve the issues related to determining the size of the output. Note that the Crypt functions really suck and are slow (why Microsoft?), so calling them twice doesn't do any favors....

Why did I write my own version of Base64 encode / decode when you already had one... Google search didn't manage to find your page for AutoHotkey v2.

and I noticed I commented on the thread that led me here... viewtopic.php?t=112821

I made some changes to Skrommel’s old Noise.ahk script. The main change was to use ControlSendText which is newer in AHK v2, and to wait for the release of modifier keys (to prevent user held modifiers from being cancelled by SendText). This class of keep my computer awake programs falls under the t...

The main problem is that it's a categorization error. It's easy to write logic for when ahk_class notepad isn't found, but it's harder to deal with "A" . Especially since it fails very rarely, but still non-zero. Suggestions It could just fail silently, but this probably isn't the v2 way of doing th...

Anyways feel free to add more pangrams to this list. NOTE: Similar pangrams have been selected against. So you'll find 200 UNIQUE pangrams here.

I happen to love pangrams, mostly because they're the best way to view all the letters of a font. Well, I don't know why myfonts.com stopped using quicky and panache pangrams in a desultory manner, but here's an equally quixotic list of pangrams d: Note the last time I searched the web for pangrams ...

[Moderator's note: Topic moved from Bug Reports.]
Not sure if it's a bug when the parenthesis are omitted when the function call has []

Code: Select all

a := []
a.push "test"
MsgBox a[1]

m := Map()
m['a'] := []
m['a'].push "test"
MsgBox m['a'][1]

Great tutorial. I think this covers all of them, the advanced methods shown are very useful. This might be the first time I've seen semaphores and mutexes (done via WINAPI) in AutoHotkey. One note however: I don't believe the semaphore or mutex shares memory across scripts at all. It only manages th...

wait, you're probably overthinking this one. There's a shortcut, because Microsoft allows you to use PNGs as ICO files.

There's a non-zero chance that any code that uses "A" will bring up a Target not found error. It's not clear to me why it fails, seemingly randomly, but should there be a best practice or some codebase change to mitigate this error? For example, often simple code like: ; Closes the window PostMessag...

Got it, turns out the answer was easier than I expected. Using a formally untyped lambda calculus, a one line Loop n {} can be written as: Z := f => (x => f(v => x(x)(v)))(x => f(v => x(x)(v))) L := g => y => (y > 0 ? (MsgBox(), g(y - 1)) : 0) Z(L)(10) or in a single line: (f => (x => f(v => x(x)(v)...

I think the problem I was having was: How do I create something like:

Code: Select all

Loop 6
   MsgBox

in one line:

Code: Select all

(f := (n) => ((n < 0) || (MsgBox(n), f(n-1))))(6)

except you can't use :=.

You could use the Y or Z combinators though.

Code: Select all

Z := f => (x => f(v => x(x)(v)))(x => f(v => x(x)(v)))

Oh yeah, I think I was playing around with the fixed point combinator (Z). It's not really meant to calculate the Fibonacci sequence, but rather demonstrate the possibility of recursion (via higher order functions (a.k.a. consumes functions and returns functions)) without relying on keywords such as...

I'm not sure if I understand your question. I assume you're asking about JPG / PNG etc. ImagePut will choose the fastest route for conversions. In the case a JPG is input, and the output "type" supports JPG, then no decoding will be done. This is the case for "cats.jpg" → base64 string . It would no...

Honestly, if you want my feedback, it's too complex. (All of it). Even I don't understand the problem that is being solved. The reason for machine code (as I see it) is speed. That means assembly. We only use C because hand writing assembly is hard. So your wiki should be more focused on methods to ...
