Uhh, so TheSaint donates $10,000 to you, github matches the donation, you get $20,000 ? ...and then give TheSaint his $10,000 back ?

Sponsor development of EasyCodeIt - GitHub will match your contributions What? A few years ago I started working on a project called EasyCodeIt, it aims to be a scripting language with a syntax similar to AutoIt but also work cross-platform (Linux, Windows, Mac etc.) along with few more cool planned features like multi-threading, compile to byte-code etc. Who? I'm a passionate AutoIt user and a frequent visitor to the forum, I've been visiting the forum almost daily for more than 7 years! I started my programming journey with AutoIt and today I work as a software developer with expertise in all things automation. I am also a user of Linux and I've been using it as my primary OS for around 3 years. Aside from AutoIt I indulge in other programming language, both low and high-level alike. My other two favorite languages are C (great for low-level stuff and command line utilities) and JavaScript (great all purpose scripting language which runs anywhere). Why? The progress on this project happens on a snail's pace because of my work and personal life. Before 2020 I was working with multiple clients on long-term projects which left me with little-to-no time on hobby projects. But then COVID happened and many businesses went into loss, which included my clients and myself by extension. Since then I've been working on and off with new clients but I've never had a stable source of income. In the past 2 years I've lost around half of my life savings, and due to this I've also been suffering from mild depression which makes me inactive, both mentally and physically. So? Yesterday I was contacted by GitHub where they informed me that they had launched the "GitHub Sponsor" program in India and that I was one of the first to be selected! So now I've decided to seriously start pursuing my dream of working on open-source projects and put bread on my table at the same time. What do I get? Excellent question! You will get the following: A cross-platform programming language which follows AutoIt's simple principles Regular progress reports (at-least once per week) All code which will be published as open-source A badge on your GitHub profile Your name or nickname in the "Early Supporters" list in the documentation forever (optional, must donate $5 or more) My eternal gratitude! ...More? Normally I charge $20/hour to my clients, but since this project benefits all of us and it will also serve as a valuable learning experience for me, I'll work 1 hour for $10! I promise to use the sponsor funds to take time out of my work schedule and work on EasyCodeIt itself. For transparency I'll be publishing regular (perhaps weekly) work reports with the following: Number of hours I worked on EasyCodeIt What I worked on Sharing of code upon request But wait! GitHub has a Matching Fund, and with that for a limited time and they'll match your donations 1:1! That means if you donate $10, GitHub will match your donation and they will donate a matching sum of an additional $10 from their pocket! That means I get $20 in the end! Essentially you'll get 4x times the amount of work compared to my commercial work! So if you can spare the change, please do consider funding this project. Let's do this! Sponsor me at GitHub. I recommend you to donate at-least $5 dollars as that will guarantee at-least an hour of work from me. And if you can afford it, donate as much as you want and take advantage of GitHub's matching fund. If enough people donate we can make significant progress, maybe even a usable programming language! Also please feel free to share your thoughts and discuss aspects of this, and any ideas you might have, I really appreciate your response.

Best of luck with it all bud. It seems promising. Don't forget me when you are rich and famous.

If only. In reality he'd be asking me to donate again ... and a bigger amount.

Your syntax is wrong. The timeout value in your script is the second parameter. If you look at the syntax for WinWait you will see that the second parameter is then optional Text parameter and the optional timeout parameter is the third. Change the script to WinWait("SomethingDontExist", "", 3) and the timeout will work as expected.

The source is : #include <MsgBoxConstants.au3> ... so the browser will try to interpret the "<....>" part but not show it. Have a look at the opened page's source.

Looking at the details I am wondering whether the correct version is copied to the Website as we have a html and web_html subdir. The current build copies html while web_html seems to contain a proper version of the file. @jpmdo you know this by any chance? (I haven't been modding with these for a very long time )

@TheSaint Thanks bud. I promise to buy you a lifetime supply of Krispy Creme donuts after I become a millionaire Not so fast, there are two things that would get in the way: GitHub only matches up to $5000 for each eligible "sponsored person" They review each transaction to check if it is eligible for the matching fund, so stuff like this wouldn't happen I wish. This is not a job offer nor am I employed by anyone, this is just a community thing and GitHub is only providing a platform for developers to accept $ The GitHub Matching Fund is an initiative to encourage community funding, it's not something that will go on forever. Each sponsored person is actually only eligible for the first 12 months to get matching funds. And if I recall correctly they aren't accepting any new applicants to this fund.

copyleft, As you wish - your system. Have you looked at the function headers within the UDF? From _ExtMsgBoxSet: ; $sTitlebar_Icon -> Icon to use on ExtMsgBox titlebar - default is standard AutoIt icon ; When set to name of an ico or exe file, the main icon within will be displayed ; If another icon from the file is required, add a trailing "|" followed by the icon index And _ExtMsgBox: ; Parameters ....: $vIcon -> Sets the required icon in the GUI display and optionally in the titlebar of the ExtMsgBox [...] ; Titlebar icon: ; Use a semicolon delimiter followed by the name/index of the required exe/ico file ; Default (no delimiter or name) = use global icon setting from _ExtMsgBoxSet This works fine for me: #include <ExtMsgBox.au3> ; As you have the UDF in the standard include folder you should use <> to search there first _ExtMsgBoxSet(3, 0, 0xF0F4F9, 0xFF0000, 16, "Arial", Default, Default, Default, "C:\Windows\explorer.exe") $sMsg = "This is a test. Is it OK to proceed?" $iRetValue = _ExtMsgBox(128, "OK|Cancel", "Match !", $sMsg, 5) You cannot - the titlebar of the ExtMsgBox is produced by Windows and uses system values for sizing. The UDF sizing code deals only with client area controls. M23

hope this help you: Global $Password $RRegister = IniRead('register.ini', 'Key', 'value', 'default') if $RRegister = 'true' Then Else password() $correct = 'passwordhere' For $i = 1 To 4 if $Password = $correct Then IniWrite('register.ini', 'Key', 'value', 'true') MsgBox(64, '', 'System will Restart!') Shutdown(2) ;restart it ExitLoop Else Call('Password') EndIf Next EndIf Func password() $Password = InputBox('Enter', 'Password:', '') EndFunc ;==>password

Do you know if AutoIt support any function to print out or to get a variable name. Example: GetVarName($strABCD) will return a string "$strABCD"

hello =) is there any way to get a variable's name as it is passed through a function? ie: $final_result = "4652" Get_Variable($final_result) Func Get_Variable($variable="") Endfunc how do i get "$final_result"? i know Get_Variable("$final_result", $final_result) would give me both the variable name and value but i'm trying to see if there's another way thanks in advance!

Replace the icon with a blank $hGUI = GUICreate("No Icon", 300, 200) GUISetIcon(@AutoItExe, -2, $hGUI) GUISetState() Do Until GUIGetMsg() = -3

Why would you want to do that? There seems no logical reason in my book.
