Make sure it actually works before you say it's great!  I'm not exactly the greatest lua coder ever.  This code has given me so many problems.  I tried to keep everything seperate but I make one change somewhere and it makes something else stop working.

When ever you hover your mouse over a native function, user defined function, or an AutoItObject method then you will see the calltip for that function.  Click "Like This" if you found this usefu

Good job, a really really really god job. I know it's not your duty to do what others say, but I have a feature request that may be even impossible, but worth hearing! For me, I usually keep my funct

Our chitchat reminded me of Sandra Bullock + Stallone film Demolition Man or something, when she says "Let's blow this guy!", and Stallone says "...away! Dammit away!" So, don't make me blow you.

Just when I thought that I was out of the woods a wild bug suddenly appears.  If there are two members with the same name then the first one it finds will be the one that is displayed.  Stay tuned if you're interested.

But the rest of the script works correctly for those of you who don't use AutoItObject or care to have calltips for those methods.  Even then, if you do want the calltips they will mostly work as long as you don't have two methods of the same name in different objects.

HHHRRRNNNGGGG!

I give up.  Does anybody know how to make this pattern search for instances of either "Volatile Func" OR "Func"?

"^%s*([Vv]olatile%s*)?[Ff](unc)%s+"

This one finds only "Volatile Func".

The "?" here --> ([Vv]olatile%s*)? means 0 or 1 instances of the character class.  It doesn't work as advertised on the tin!

I'm done for the night.  PEACE OUT!

Try using an case insensitive pattern (?i) then you can get rid of checking for upper and lower case matches first of all. Also in a search you can use the pipe character "|" as an OR condition.

 

X|Y Matches either subpattern X or Y: "ac|dc|ground" matches "ac" or "dc" or "ground".

If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.

lua patterns are a different flavor of RegExp unfortunately.

Anything inside of square brackets can appear in any order or I assumed not at all.  Anything inside of parenthesis must all appear and in that order.

Yes! Now! Finally I have gotten around to simplifying the code and making it more robust ... hope it stays working for a good long time ...
