Rosetta Code for v2

05 Feb 2024, 01:42

Sorry if this has been asked before.

Are any of the Rosetta Code AutoHotkey scripts for v2? I've downloaded 8 random scripts and none of them work with v2 but all work with v1.

I have not seen any posts there for v2 yet. The AutoHotkey 1.1 page still says that it's the current version. It hasn't been updated.

Posts should be using the Works with template to identify the version. For example, link. Unfortunately, this only happens the minority of the time. Even with v1.1 vs v1, there are a lot a scripts that do not include which version they are for.

Thanks for the info. It didn't occur to me to go to the wiki to check the languages. I don't know how you got to the AutoHotkey 1.1 page you linked but the Rosetta wiki page for Programming Languages lists one for AutoHotkey and two for AutoHotkey v2 (although only there is only one script listed). Thanks for the heads up about "Works with", I'll check for that from now on.

That's unfortunate. v2 should not be listed there. Rosetta Code has pages for implementations, and pages for languages. All versions of AHK are part of the same language. Different versions should be noted as separate implementations.

Navigation is trash on that site. We could do a better job of adding links on the main Autohotkey page and other sections like implementations. Most of the work on that site has been done incrementally over many years, so it may be out of date. Also, it's done by different users, so the consistency is lacking.

It certainly doesn't help if things aren't where they're meant to be - or are added incorrectly.

Yes, it would appear so.

That would be very helpful.

you could always try to use the v1 -> v2 script converter:
