Hack to make the beta the default .exe?

[DaleHohm]

A while back I recall someone posting a hack that made the AutoIt3 in the \beta folder the default... I've searched and can't find it. Anyone have a pointer?

Thanks,

Dale

this one?

#cs
vi:ts=4 sw=4:
DefaultAutoItToggle.au3
Ejoc
#ce
Opt("MustDeclareVars",1)
Local $InstallDir = RegRead("HKLM\Software\AutoIt v3\AutoIt","InstallDir")

If StringInStr(RegRead("HKLM\Software\Classes\AutoIt3Script\Shell\Run\Command",""),"beta") Then; already using beta switch back
    RegWrite("HKLM\Software\Classes\AutoIt3Script\Shell\Compile\Command","",_
            "REG_SZ",_
            $InstallDir & '\Aut2Exe\Aut2Exe.exe /in "%l"')
    RegWrite("HKLM\Software\Classes\AutoIt3Script\Shell\Run\Command","",_
            "REG_SZ",_
            $InstallDir & '\AutoIt3.exe "%1" %*')
    MsgBox(0,"Using","Using Release Version of AutoIt",2)
Else; change to beta
    RegWrite("HKLM\Software\Classes\AutoIt3Script\Shell\Compile\Command","",_
            "REG_SZ",_
            $InstallDir & '\beta\Aut2Exe\Aut2Exe.exe /in "%l"')
    RegWrite("HKLM\Software\Classes\AutoIt3Script\Shell\Run\Command","",_
            "REG_SZ",_
            $InstallDir & '\beta\AutoIt3.exe "%1" %*')
    MsgBox(0,"Using","Using beta Version of AutoIt",2)
EndIf

Yeah -- I was doing that too... I actually had a couple of occasions where I wanted to test with the production release (backwards from the normal beta scenario) and decided this would be better... this script is exactly what I wanted.

thanks,
