C++ or Autoit?

[Dasttann777]

My Dad has asked me to create a program that will scan and read all documents on the whole computer, and then write in a separate file all of the email addreses that were found in the files.

I am wondering, should I use Autoit, which I am more comfortable using, or C++, which is a little harder, but has a lot more help in this criteria.

So, what do you think?

AutoIt is the best (easiest in fact) option for you. All you need to do is load a document using fileread and do StringInStr to search for '@' and others like '.com', '.edu', '.org' etc. and then write down the e-mail addresses. You can also use 'find' utility for this purpose alongwith AutoIt.

Indeed, AutoIt.
