GetOpt.au3 v1.3 If you've ever dabbled in C (or Python, Perl etc) then you might have heard of getopt() (Wiki entry). Well, I wrote this UDF to get that functionality into AutoIt. Some searching around here on the forum did turn up some other UDFs in this direction, but I decided to write my own port anyway and parallel the implementation in the C library. It's still missing a few things but on a whole it does the job really well. It's now pretty much complete. And I want to share it with you all. So here it is. If you want to handle the command line options passed to your script or program like a master, then this is the UDF for you! Main features: Parses DOS style options as well as GNU style options alike.Handles both short and long options.Define options that must have arguments when used.Define and handle suboptions (-s=foo,bar=quux,baz).Supports + and /- option modifiers.Casts string arguments to AutoIt variants, e.g. -a=yes becomes True.Easy access to any passed operand that's not an option.Some examples of invoking scripts: Script.au3 -a -b=10 --long-option file.txt Script.au3 /A /B:10 /Long-Option file.txtAs you see you can use both styles on the command line (as a matter of fact, at this moment you could even mix them but that wouldn't be good practice). In your script you just set the options you want to detect with _GetOpt_Set() and then iterate through each option with _GetOpt(). The 'file.txt' is available through _GetOpt_Oper(). See GetOpt-Example.au3 below for a step-by-step walkthrough of using GetOpt.au3. The UDF: GetOpt.au3 (+43) GetOpt-Example.au3: A demo of GetOpt.au3 #include <GetOpt.au3> #include <Array.au3> ; For demo purposes only. If 0 = $CmdLine[0] Then ; Create our own example command line.

This UDF can be used to simply edit an Listview. There will be created an inputfield at the position of the subitem, with enter you save, use esc to interrupt,... You can specify single rows and cols or single field (giving row and col,...), also you can specify, if a singleclick or a doubleclick is needed to edit. If you like it, please leave me a comment, also if you have any suggestions to make it better or if you found bugs. I reworked the UDF with AutoIt v3.3.16.1 and added the functionality to use tab to go to the next cell. Files without version numbers contain the current version. Changelog: v1.1.0: - Release v2.0.0: - Add the ability to switch to the next editable cell with tab - Rework to AutoIt v3.3.16.1 (partly) using maps v3.0.0: - Fully reworked to use maps instead of structs (more flexibility/performance) - Uses maps to save editable rows/cols to make ..._isCellEditable faster (No string parsing every time) - Bugfixes v3.0.1: - Fixes Bug with the registered keys not working systemwide v3.0.2: - Fixes Bug where the key input gui wide - The last edited item is now selected - The selection moves with the editable cell, when using ..__updateNextCellIndex (Using the tab key) ListViewEditInput_v1_1_0.au3 Example_v1_1_0.au3 Example_v2_0_0.au3 ListViewEditInput_v2_0_0.au3 Example.au3 ListViewEditInput.au3

As the Active Directory UDF - Help & Support thread has grown too big, I start a new one. The original thread can be found here.

Hello everyone, I've created a UDF for basic communication with SSH servers. I know there is already such a UDF, but I wasn't satisfied with it for my purpose, so I created a new one. This UDF also acts as a wrapper for the plink executable. Its essential functions are _SSHConnect, _SSHSend, _SSHRecv and _SSHCloseSocket. It does support multiple simultaneous connections and aims to be pretty robust. Feel free to share your opinions Two of the included examples use a slightly modified version of Vintage Terminal by @Chimp Download The download includes ssh.au3 (UDF), plink.exe (necessary), vintage terminal and code examples: Version 1.0.1 - fixed rare _SSHConnect bug where "ssh-host-key prompt" was not answered SSH UDF 1.0.1.zip

Hi all. Today I would like to introduce the beginning of the UDF.

I have a table that'd I'd like to lookup things in my script based on the input. Searching this forum I found some old posts about _ExcelReadSheetToArray(). After not getting it to work, I realized that is no longer in the UDF and _Excel_Range_Read is to be used instead. I also read the _Excel_RangeFind is another method to lookup data in a table. This method seems to use Excel to run these functions, whereas _Excel_Range_Read loads the entire range as an array and autoit does the work. I'm looking at loading a 30k row csv with 3 columns. Does anyone know if either this methods are better with this amount of data? Pros/cons? I'm leaning towards the _Excel_RangeFind so Excel can just run in the background and be the "database" vs. my script holding all that data in a massive array. Or maybe there's a completely different method? Let me know your thoughts!

GuiFlatButton is a UDF to easily create regular buttons with different colors for background, foreground, border, hover, focus, etc.. This started as an effort to change the background color of a button and eventually grew into a full UDF. If you've looked around forums for changing button background colors, you have probably noticed that each proposed workaround has its own set of issues/side-effects. The answers usually circle back to 'use ownerdrawn buttons' and 'not worth it'. Well, now it is possible for anyone to easily create ownerdrawn buttons - totally worth it! Some issues with other workarounds such as drawing with GDI+ or using a colored label as a 'button': Not 'real' buttons so you lose built-in functionality that windows gives to buttons Messy / inefficient code in the main while loop to check for mouse position Slow to respond to click, paint, etc... Having to deal with GUIRegisterMsg messages Not straight-forward to implement GuiFlatButton is not a workaround; it is a technique to respond to Windows' built-in owner-drawn button events. With minimal effort, we can now create true simple colored buttons. The idea is to create an owner-drawn button using GUICtrlCreateButton then subclass the GUI and controls to handle the button-specific events to paint it however we want. This UDF magically does all of this for us! No need to worry about event handling or main while loop logic. How to use It couldn't be any easier! Simply create a new button using the familiar syntax. This creates an ownerdrawn button with default colors. $mybutton1 = GuiFlatButton_Create("Button 1", 78, 20, 120, 40) If you want to change the background and text colors: GuiFlatButton_SetBkColor(-1, 0x5555FF) GuiFlatButton_SetColor(-1, 0xFFFFFF) Advanced Usage Set background/text/border all at once GuiFlatButton_SetColors(-1, 0x0000FF, 0xFFFFFF, 0x9999FF) Set ALL colors for ALL button states!

When I started using AutoIt, I used to dump all the community UDFs as well as my own frequently-used scripts into C:\Program Files (x86)\AutoIt3\Include - - terrible idea, of course, and I wouldn't advise anyone to do this. These days I have the following folder structure for UDFs: - I have a folder C:\AutoIt which has subfolders: - - C:\AutoIt\MyLibraries, which has my own scripts, organized as C:\AutoIt\MyLibraries\MyUDFName\MyUDFName.au3 - - C:\AutoIt\CommunityLibraries, which has scripts from other forum members, organized as: C:\AutoIt\CommunityLibraries\CommunityMemberUsername\UDFName\UDFName.au3 For example, I've been playing around with TheXman's "jq" UDF, and this is the storage path: This in itself won't make everything run. Some UDFs will have hardcoded DLL paths which you'll have to edit. And finally, you'll have to make registry edits so you can #include these UDFs without entering the entire path. Here's what I did: #include <Array.au3> #include <File.au3> Global Const $CUSTOMINCLUDE_REGKEYNAME = "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\AutoIt v3\AutoIt" Global Const $CUSTOMINCLUDE_REGKEYVALUENAME = "Include" Global Const $CUSTOMINCLUDE_REGKEYVALUETYPE = "REG_SZ" Global Const $FOLDER_COMMUNITYLIBRARIES = "C:\AutoIt\CommunityLibraries" Global Const $FOLDER_MYLIBRARIES = "C:\AutoIt\MyLibraries" Global $CUSTOMINCLUDE_REGKEYVALUE = "" Local $CommunityUsers = _FileListToArray($FOLDER_COMMUNITYLIBRARIES, "*", $FLTA_FOLDERS, False) _ArrayDelete($CommunityUsers, 0) Local $CommunityLibraries = 0 Local $UDFPath = "" For $i = 0 To UBound($CommunityUsers) - 1 $CommunityLibraries = _FileListToArray($FOLDER_COMMUNITYLIBRARIES & "\" & $CommunityUsers[$i], "*", $FLTA_FOLDERS, False) _ArrayDelete($CommunityLibraries, 0) For $j = 0 To UBound($CommunityLibraries) - 1 $UDFPath = $FOLDER_COMMUNITYLIBRARIES & "\" & $CommunityUsers[$i] & "\" & $CommunityLibraries[$j] If FileExists($UDFPath) Then $CUSTOMINCLUDE_REGKEYVALUE &= $UDFPath & ";" Next Next Local $MyLibraries = _FileListToArray($FOLDER_MYLIBRARIES, "*", $FLTA_FOLDERS, False) _ArrayDelete($MyLibraries, 0) For $j = 0 To UBound($MyLibraries) - 1 $UDFPath = $FOLDER_MYLIBRARIES & "\" & $MyLibraries[$j] If FileExists($UDFPath) Then $CUSTOMINCLUDE_REGKEYVALUE &= $UDFPath & ";" Next $CUSTOMINCLUDE_REGKEYVALUE = StringTrimRight($CUSTOMINCLUDE_REGKEYVALUE, 1) ConsoleWrite($CUSTOMINCLUDE_REGKEYVALUE) RegWrite("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\AutoIt v3\AutoIt", "Include", "REG_SZ", $CUSTOMINCLUDE_REGKEYVALUE) This script scans the "CommunityLibraries" and "MyLibraries" folders and adds all the folder paths where the folder name matches the au3 file name to the registry. So far, it has worked out great for me, because now I can use this: #include <jq.au3> instead of: #include "C:\AutoIt\CommunityLibraries\TheXman\jq\jq.au3" Okay, that's all, I hope this'll be useful for newbies who want an easy system for storing their UDFs :)

I am encountering a perplexing issue while running a script, and I would appreciate your insights and assistance in resolving it. Here's a brief description of the problem: When I execute the script within the AutoIt environment, it runs smoothly without any errors or problems. However, when I compile the script into an executable and attempt to run it, an error occurs stating, "Variable used without being declared." I have made diligent efforts to identify the undeclared variable, but unfortunately, I have been unsuccessful in locating it. I have reviewed EzMySqll.au3 UDF made by @Yoriz thoroughly, and declared all undeclared variables now they all appear to be appropriately declared before usage.

Hello, I am facing difficulties connecting to SQL Server using AutoIt and would greatly appreciate some help. I have already tried using the MySQL UDF (User Defined Function) and the latest ODBC connect driver from the provided link here However, I have been unable to establish a successful connection. I have come across posts about this topic, but most of them are over 10 years old, and I suspect they might be outdated. I even attempted to change the driver name in the https://www.autoitscript.com/forum/applications/core/interface/file/attachment.php?id=15889 UDF from "MySQL ODBC 3.51 Driver" to the latest driver I obtained, but I still haven't been able to connect.

Hello! Microsoft Edge, the new browser released with Windows 10, uses Chakra as its JavaScript engine. In January, Microsoft released ChakraCore - the open source version of the engine that can be used in other apps. So, how about using it in AutoIt? I tried 2 times to create ChakraCore UDF, and I succeeded. So here it is - the ChakraCore UDF. Features: Executing JavaScript from AutoIt (obviously) Passing data from AutoIt to JavaScript Calling AutoIt functions from JavaScript ChakraCore UDF Have fun!

Always searching for the "final" solution to my zipping/unzipping needs, I started years ago using WinRar with AutoIT (don't ask me why...) and for the last 10 years I worked well with the _zip.UDF , a good solution using the embedded windows zipfldr.dll. But often I work with a lot of data (both multi gigabytes and/or 100K+ files) and I noticed the performance of the windows zip DLL are not so good, the problem is maybe worsened by the mono thread operation using AutoIT + zipfldr.dll.

Hi! I wrote an UDF that can simplify the way you can control Telegram Bot with AutoIt. If you don't know what is a Telegram Bot, maybe you should read their official website here. All about this UDF is on my GitHub: what is, how it work, how to use and also a Test.au3 to see the script in action. But... let's talk about this UDF. What is: It's an UDF that contain functions to control a Telegram Bot. Send messages, photo, video, stickers, wait for incoming messages and answer to them. How it works: Insert you Token given from BotFather, initialize your bot with _InitBot() function and... you're ready! All functions are commented: You will find a description of what it does, an explanation for every argument that function has need and what it return. This is the test script, that initialize your bot, run all functions and write the return value. #include "Telegram UDF.au3" $ChatID = "Your_Chat_ID_For_Test" _InitBot("Bot_ID","Bot_Token") ConsoleWrite("Test _GetUpdates -> " & @TAB & _GetUpdates() & @CRLF) ConsoleWrite("Test _GetMe -> " & @TAB & _GetMe() & @CRLF) ConsoleWrite("Test _SendMsg -> " & @TAB & _SendMsg($ChatID,"Test _SendMsg") & @CRLF) ConsoleWrite("Test _ForwardMsg -> " & @TAB & _ForwardMsg($ChatID,$ChatID,'MsgID') & @CRLF) ConsoleWrite("Test _SendPhoto -> " & @TAB & _SendPhoto($ChatID,"C:\image.jpg","Test _SendPhoto") & @CRLF) ConsoleWrite("Test _SendVideo -> " & @TAB & _SendVideo($ChatID,"C:\video.mp4","Test _SendVideo") & @CRLF) ConsoleWrite("Test _SendAudio -> " & @TAB & _SendAudio($ChatID,"C:\audio.mp3","Test _SendAudio") & @CRLF) ConsoleWrite("Test _SendDocument -> " & @TAB & _SendDocument($ChatID,"C:\document.txt","Test _SendDocument") & @CRLF) ConsoleWrite("Test _SendVoice -> " & @TAB & _SendVoice($ChatID,"C:\voice.ogg","Test _SendVoice") & @CRLF) ConsoleWrite("Test _SendSticker -> " & @TAB & _SendSticker($ChatID,"C:\sticker.webp") & @CRLF) ConsoleWrite("Test _SendLocation -> " & @TAB & _SendLocation($ChatID,"74.808889","-42.275391") & @CRLF) ConsoleWrite("Test _SendContact -> " & @TAB & _SendContact($ChatID,"0123456789","Josh") & @CRLF) ConsoleWrite("Test _SendChatAction -> " & @TAB & _SendChatAction($ChatID,"typing") & @CRLF) ConsoleWrite("Test _GetUserProfilePhotos -> " & @TAB & _GetUserProfilePhotos($ChatID) & @CRLF) ConsoleWrite("Test _GetChat -> " & @TAB & _GetChat($ChatID) & @CRLF) While 1 $msgData = _Polling() _SendMsg($msgData[2],$msgData[3]) WEnd Last part of the script (While cycle) use Polling function to put the script in a wait-state for incoming messages: _Polling() function return an array ($msgData in this case) that contain information about the received message (for example, $msgData[2] is the Chat ID of the user that send the message, important to send a reply. See GitHub page for other info. So, finally, here you can find and download the library -> https://github.com/xLinkOut/telegram-udf-autoit <- UPDATE: Thanks to @mLipok to added my Telegram UDF on AutoItScript Wiki! UPDATE 2: Functions that send files to Telegram Servers (photos, videos..) don't need anymore cURL executable file. Thanks to @Jos that suggested how to use WinHttp UDF by trancexx. If you have question, bug report or anything else just contact me or reply to this Thread Don't forget to follow me on GitHub for future updates. Bye!

Other than different methodologies, are there any differences between the two? Does one work out to be faster or more reliable than the other when deployed at scale? I'm trying out both UDFs, was curious which method is preferred by the community.

Version 3: Ops, you may ask, where's the version 2? The answer is, you will never see it. I skipped it to jump to version 3 directly. Why? Actually, I didn't learn M$ about that versioning The reason is, I planed to write version 2, using the new window/control handle indexing technique to eliminate all the ugly and slow loop. But when nearly finish, I feel so tired, tired of using a lots of all workaround. And finally, I decided to rewrite entire the UDF, using the direct solution, the way all other languages used, and should use. I late some day, because of some machine code (it's actually not so necessary, but if the control is doing an expensive task, like heavy drawing then passing all the Window Message to AutoIt is not a so good idea because its slow speed may result in some annoying-small-but-easy-to-figure-out problems, (like tearing as example). So I use machine code directly to pass over it. Now you have not a Stupid but a Smart UDF And it's still simple. API change: Remove a parameter from _SSCtrlHover_Register. You nolonger can attach other controls to the registered control. Use another method to do it and when you delete the control be sure to delete all the attached controls yourself. This breaks your old script. Add double click event (last 2 parameters of _SSCtrlHover_Register) Remove the _SSCtrlHover_Delete. You must manually delete yourself. It's easy with GUICtrlDelete and I decide not to duplicate this function to my UDF (be sure to delete your attached control too) This version eliminate all the odd limit of old version, include: No:longer use timer/adlib to test the control is on mouse event. Now it directly use native WinAPI method to provide a truly event-driven way. Every click is detected, every mouse hover/left, is handled perfectly. Fast and very fast. All the loop is eliminated. Machine code. Execute speed is much much improved. (read as: nano seconds instead of milliseconds ) I documented it quite well so if you want you can easily browse it and change it the way you want. Now you can use in both GUIGetMsg() loop mode or event mode. No longer setting constants like before because it works perfectly in both mode. Cheer Remark: I don't include <WinAPI.au3> and <WinAPIShellEx.au3> in my UDF, because those UDF is very large and it will consume much more memory when you run (not matter you run the 'compiled' exe, the au3 file, or the .a3x file). In the CtrlHover UDF, i included a small subset of those UDF with the same name, so if you have already included <WinAPI.au3> or <WinAPIShell.au3>, be sure to edit the UDF and comment out the corresponding region. Edit 2: Reorganize script. Fix some issues when drag too fast. Add ability to handle "click" (work RIGHT as normal button, will not fire if you only release the mouse button upon the control as some UDF use MouseUp event) Add a helper method to check if MouseUp event is click event or not. Add compability function to call as normal UDF (with first letter is underscore). Edit 1: Add some function descriptions as JS's advice. Thank you I also changed script name (shorter) and modify the register function so it may be called with less parameter. From now on, the function name and calling syntax will be fixed. OK, I know there is the famous "GUICtrlOnHover" UDF already in this forum, and many people have used it and enjoyed it! But the UDF didn't work as I expected . So I wrote an UDF myself, as much simple as possible, and it works out of the box It has some advantages compare to the old GUICtrlOnHover.au3 It creates the normal button behavior. When you press primary mouse button in the control and begin to drag, it do not set other controls to "hover" state. Faster. I try to add 2k controls. When mouse change from one control to another, it only take about 25ms to handle. In idle state (mouse cursor is not over any control), the cost is ignorable with < 0.1ms. Compare with GUICtrlOnHover UDF takes about 3ms when mouse cursor is over the control, but in idle state, it takes about 35ms. (I do not know why) (That is, because I tested script with overlapped controls. GUICtrlOnHover rely on WinAPI function WindowFromPoint(), which return the first created control (the control with is overlapped any others), but my script rely on GUIGetCursorInfo() which return the last created control - which is the most nested control in Windows). So my script need to check entire 2k control, but GUICtrlOnHover return the first element. I will wait for information about GUIGetCursorInfo() to decide that my UDF should use WinAPI function instead of the native function. In the normal usecase and controls is not overlapped, my UDF is far faster. Edit: Add a setting constant, make you ability to choose use WindowFromPoint() or GUIGetCursorInfo(). Default to the WinAPI function) Faster time to create/ register control. Native AutoIt. No Callback. The only DllCall I use is to get parent window of a control. Wonder why AutoIt do not have a similar function. Found a new bug #2899. If someone can ad more functinal to WinGetHandle("[LAST]"), it should be great Edit: Use some other WinAPI call to provide workaround for issue with GUIGetCursorInfo. Smaller size, about 280 lines compare with about 400 lines of GUICtrlOnHover. More simple, more easy to use. No more than 120 characters in one line. No annoying jumping when scroll the UDF Support event mode to detect mouse down event. But it doesn't work with overlay control. So you cannot have a control (with event) over another control. (use $_BGUIGETCURSORINFOFIX const setting to get rid of this). It seems that it's a AutoIt bug, the GUIGetCursorInfo return a useless control id when controls overlapped. Its not the same with the control received with WindowFromPoint(), or the control which fire event (anyone can confirm it's a bug? Or it's a special feature? ) ( I open a new Trac Ticket here: #2900) Current limit: Mouse down Almost all mouse event is currently detected by timeout (this is why the script called Simple and Stupid, but every UDF I found in this forum also use this method). You can set a smaller timeout to catch the mouse, but sometimes its annoying. Edit: Default changed to 30ms timeout, it should be fast enough to detect any click! You can also change to use event mode to detect click better! Otherwise, it works like a charm. Try it and happy with it Example: Callback function #include "SSCtrlHover.au3" GUICreate(@AutoItVersion) $idLbl1 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Label 1", 5, 5) SSCtrlHover_Register($idLbl1, "FnNormal", 0, "FnHover", 0, "FnActive", 0, "FnClick", 0) $idLbl2 =GUICtrlCreateLabel("Label 2", 5, 35) SSCtrlHover_Register($idLbl2, "FnNormal", 0, "FnHover", 0, "FnActive", 0, "FnClick", 5) GUISetState() While GUIGetMsg() <> -3 Sleep(10) WEnd Func FnNormal($idCtrl, $hWnd, $vData) ConsoleWrite(@CRLF & "Normal/Leave " & $idCtrl) EndFunc Func FnHover($idCtrl, $hWnd, $vData) ConsoleWrite(@CRLF & "Hover " & $idCtrl) EndFunc Func FnActive($idCtrl, $hWnd, $vData) ConsoleWrite(@CRLF & "Active " & $idCtrl) EndFunc Func FnClick($idCtrl, $hWnd, $vData) ConsoleWrite(@CRLF & "CLICK! " & $idCtrl & " - " & $hWnd & " - " & $vData) EndFunc You can use it with GUICtrlSetImage to provide a "hover button" effect Version 1: SSCtrlHover.au3 Version 3: SSCtrlHover.zip

I updated the UDF by Patric Pendelin to use the MemoryDLL UDF. There are only two new functions: _SevenZip_Load & _SevenZip_Free The first function must be called before using any other functions included in the UDF and the other should be called to free memory when the UDF is no longer needed! The size of binary from the module was excessive so I used the ZLMA UDF to compress it. It will be decompressed at run time before its loaded into memory. The only advantage of using this UDF is that it removes the need to included any DLLs in your script. A lot of functions haven't been added yet! For those that dare: The API for the 7-Zip32.dll module is included in the attachment. These functions work in the same way you would you use the standalone 7za.exe executable so the Help.chm file applies to these functions aswell. Thats it, Enjoy! The code below is a sneak peak at the actually UDF, meaning it dosen't work without the other includes and the embed binary. - Download the attachment. #include-once #include "MemoryDLL.au3" #include "LZMA.au3" Global $__7ZIPDLL = Default, $__7ZIPINIT = False #cs =============================================================================== Name: 7-Zip.au3 Version: 1.0 Datum: 08.07.2008 Author: Patric Pendelin eMail: <patric.pendelin (a) gmx.de> Modified By: Decipher Script Function: _SevenZip_Load() _SevenZip_Extract($s_Archive, $s_Out="", $s_Pass="", $szCmdLine="", $s_Overwrite="", $hwnd=0, $szOutput="NULL", $dwSize=0) Extracts files from an archive _SevenZip_Add($s_Archive, $s_Out = "", $s_Typ = "7z32", $i_Comp = 5, $s_Pass = "", $szCmdLine = "", $hwnd = 0, $szOutput = "NULL", $dwSize = 0) Add files to an archive _SevenZip_GetVersion() Get 7_zip32.dll Version _SevenZip_GetRunning() _SevenZip_CheckArchive($s_Archive, $i_iMode = 0) _SevenZip_GetArchiveType($s_Archive) _SevenZip_GetFileCount($s_Archive) _SevenZip_GetUDFVersion() Returns UDF version number _SevenZip_Free() #ce =============================================================================== Func _SevenZip_Load() If Not $__7ZIPINIT Then $__7ZIPDLL = MemoryDllOpen(__7ZIPBIN()) $__7ZIPINIT = True EndIf EndFunc Func _SevenZip_Free() If $__7ZIPINIT Then MemoryDllClose($__7ZIPDLL) $__7ZIPINIT = False $__7ZIPDLL = Default EndIf EndFunc ;=============================================================================== ; Function Name: _SevenZip_Extract ; Description: Extracts files from an archive ; ; Parameter(s): $s_Archive: Fullpath to Archive-File ; $s_Out: Specifies a destination directory where files are to be extracted.

This UDF can be used to draw at the Desktop Wallpaper (Windows 8+) with GDI+ without using files. The example runs with 60-120fps at my machine, so the speed is acceptable. When the script exits, the original wallpaper is restored. Have fun :). PS: The UDF uses the window between the background and the icons, so it could be used to add an own child window at the desktop. Just look at the begin of __Wallpaper_Startup ($hWorkerW). Example: WallpaperUDF.au3 WallpaperUDF Example.au3

Wondering if you can help a teacher out. For the last few years of remote, hybrid, and in-person teaching I've been using an AutoHotKey script that creates an inking toolbar to be used during a PowerPoint presentation. (https://www.autohotkey.com/boards/viewtopic.php?t=79163) The annotation tools available through Ppt are woefully inadequate, and, on my machine at least, jump around all over the place - sometimes on the bottom, sometimes on the left, sometimes on the right. It's a scavenger hunt every single time. The inking tool is always available, and recent updates allowed for the addition of lots more colors, which I used for modeling phenomena with students. One tragic day I arrived to school to find that my district IT dep't took away access to AutoHotKey. No more tool bar. I've been trying to resurrect some programming skills from a past life. I'm working through various tutorials and help files, with the goal of recreating the toolbar in AutoIt. I'm really needing some help to move things along though. I've been going through your PowerPoint UDF and all of your functions seem to just relate to editing the slides. Can you point me in the direction of how to create a toolbar that accesses the annotation tools that are available during the slideshow itself?

The _XLSXReadToArray Fuction Reads the EXCEL XLSX Sheet into an Array, not needed that Office is installed and do not use Object just use the REGEXP so_XLSXReadToArray works very fast, in a test done by me here with BulletinSearch_20121008_170143.xlsx (1,5 Mb, Rows = 12148 & Column = 15), the _XLSXReadToArray Return Array in 10 seconds, instead to Excel 2013 them have served more than 20 seconds to open the file ect ect, Normally should not happen ever of not finding the "[Content_Types].xml" or other files mentioned in "[Content_Types].xml", but if anything happens already Added the >_FileListToArrayEx to try to search the *.xml files in "Temp Extract Diretory" #include-once ;
