Daily Cup of Tech » AutoIt UDF's; A Lot of Power in One Line. Most scripts take a lot of time and effort to build, especially if they are extremely complex. And the more complex they become, the more difficult they are to work. The maker’s of AutoIt understood this problem and created UDF’s or U ser D efined F unctions. UDF’s are similar to includes in other scripting languages. They are files that are linked to by othe scripts so that the code in them can be used by the other script. For example: #include <Date.au3> MsgBox ( 0 , "Date/Time" , "The current date and time is " & _Now ( ) ) Download this code: CurrentDateTime.au3 Notice the first line of code.

The biggest advantage to this is it allows script writers to take advantage of the work that others have done before them. There are about twenty UDF’s that are included with the base install of AutoIt. There are many more UDF’s out there and this is just a quick list of some of the ones that I have used. Leave a Reply.

Getting Started Installation instructions for Autoit3 and SciTE4AutoIt3. Download Page containing installers and separate definition files. News SciTE4AutoIt3 About SciTE4AutoIt3 People on the Forum started looking at many editors to see which one was the most useful editor for AutoIt3. We found SciTE and saw its potential so I wrote a customized Lexer for the Syntax Highlighting and Syntax folding and created a special installer called SciTE4AutoIt3. Quote Neil Hodgson:”SciTE is a SCIntilla based Text Editor. SciTE4AutoIt3 contains SciTE, wrapped into a single installer with all needed configuration settings and lots of utility programs like AutoIt3Wrapper, SciTEConfig, Tidy, Au3Stripper etc to enhanced SciTE for use with AutoIt3. It has a customized Lexer for AutoIt3 which handles the Syntax Highlighting and Code folding: CodeFolding: Autocomplete: Intellisense: Check the helpfile for all details.
