MarkStout Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 I'm writing a blog about my appreciation of Autoit. In fairness I point out the last update was in 2015 and even Jon's last forum entry was in January of 2017. Am I right in pointing out that Autoit continues to grow by additions of UDFs etc. Is active development going to resume; is there a need for it to resume? Is the future of this site and forums more or less assured for the coming years? I'd appreciate thoughts on this to make the post accurate.

TheDcoder Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 @MarkStout Your are a new user here so you cannot access the chat forum (yet). There are a lot of recent topics regarding the same question. Is AutoIt's Development Active? The answer in a nutshell is yes, the UDFs and other things are indeed in development. Jon is just taking a break from updating the AutoIt Interpreter... fair enough because there isn't much on the ToDo list EasyCodeIt - A cross-platform AutoIt implementation - Fund the development!

MarkStout Posted May 24, 2017 Author Share Posted May 24, 2017 Thank you everyone. I'll post the link to the blog post here when I make it for comments. It won't be for a while. It is a companion piece to an app I'm working on that is done yet. I am my worst enemy with scope creep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
