Good ebook to learn Autoit?


Recommended Posts

The help file was my ebook. I started with small scripts like creating message boxes and simple GUI items like reading input boxes. And, of course, reading the forum to see how scripts can be written.

There's also this:

Good luck! I'm sure you will find this language fascinating.

This forum and the help file was it for me. I've honestly only asked a couple of questions (and in both cases the answer was in the help file) and try to mainly answer them on here. The reason I point that out is because if you search correctly and hard enough, you can literally find example code of how to do pretty much anything on here (or at least point you in the right direction)

My best advice, find a project that you would like to build, some kind of application. Automate some task that you have to perform manually every day and use the search feature to find examples of what you want to do.

Here are some ideas for small scripts that teach you important concepts about the language. By the time you finish all of these, you should be the one answering the questions:

PM me if you would like a solution to any of them and I'd be happy to provide it for you.
