Yep. Everyone starts somewhere, and that is a great way to start. Infact, that's sort of how I started, by making small scripts like that. I ofcourse, am still learning new things every day (as I expect mose people on the forums are) but that's the way to go about it. Keep at it, I can't wait to see what sort of scripts you will be making in a few month's time with the right guidance from the community, you will surely go far!

It's good you're starting small and posting examples for those who might want to learn too, but the following have just been lifted directly from the Help file 'list drives.au3', 'IP get.au3' & 'autoit update.au3'.

I am right now trying to make a script to read ether a web page blog or a textnow site to start a program so when you add something to the blog or text the site it runs a program based on what it recives.

Woah, don't get too far ahead of yourself, that sounds like it might be a little advanced for you. If you want to try, then sure but it may end in frustration. What you would probably want for that is the website API and that might be somewhat hard to get working.

What guinness pointed out here is true and IMO very bad. I see that as being just the same as copying anybody elses code around here and then trying to pawn it off as if you wrote it. Even if its modified, you should still credit where you got your original code from.

chibill,

It is nice to see that you are learning AutoIt, but please do not post any more scripts taken directly from the Help file. :)

But do post any scripts you have coded yourself in this thread - we encourage members to show off their own work. ;)

Welcome to AutoIt and the forum!

Do you think it is sensible to post in a thread where the last post is 3 years old and the OP has been offline for nearly 2 years :huh:

But now that he has brought up this topic, I would like to air my view.

Most of us have indeed crafted pretty much most of the same scripts offered up here.

And I am keen to encourage people with their programming.

I would suggest though, that one needs to look at the sense of cluttering up the forum with simple things that are useful to be sure, and certainly have a place in our toolbox, but perhaps should be left for others to learn from scratch.

If all of us were to upload these type of programs (and many do), we would be using up space here unnecessarily with repetitive stuff (which happens).

If you craft such a thing, but add a handy twist, then that is different and certainly acceptable, and probably even desirable.

Otherwise, I would task people to think logically before uploading their really simple stuff ... perhaps do a search of the forum first, to see if something very much the same is already available. That and the Help file.

I would also suggest, that the forum and AutoIt have been around long enough, for all the simple basic stuff to have already seen the light of day.

I quite realize, that people get very enthusiastic with their programs, especially the first ones, and the urge to show how clever you are, can be strong. I just suggest you temper that urge with sense.

Whatever you do though, don't let my statements here, curb your enthusiasm for programming.
