- Added: DLL Import: AU3_WinGetPos.
- Added: DLL Import: AU3_ControlGetPos.
- Added: DLL Import: AU3_MouseGetPos.
- Added: DLL Import: AU3_WinGetClientSize.
- Added: DLL Import: AU3_WinGetCaretPos.
- Removed: DLL Imports: AU3_WinGetPosX, AU3_WinGetPosY, AU3_WinGetPosWidth, AU3_WinGetPosHeight.
- Removed: DLL Imports: AU3_ControlGetPosX, AU3_ControlGetPosY, AU3_ControlGetPosWidth, AU3_ControlGetPosHeight.
- Removed: DLL Imports: AU3_MousePosX, AU3_MouseGetPosY
- Removed: DLL Imports: AU3_WinGetClientSizeWidth, AU3_WinGetClientSizeHeight.

I've updated the download.

I've completed the C# wrapper part so there are now friendly wrapper functions for all the DLL Imports.  As part of that, instead of supplying a .cs file I've simply compiled it into a CLR 2.0 Assembly that you can just add as a reference to any .NET aware application (Or of course, Visual Studio C# VB, etc).

The Assembly files are:

AutoItX3.Assembly.dll

AutoItX3.Assembly.xml

The .xml file is a very sparse documentation/intellisense file. But it's better than nothing :)

The PowerShell cmdlets file has been renamed to AutoItX3.PowerShell.dll (which is turn uses the AutoItX3.Assembly.dll). This is imported using the new manifest file AutoItX3.psd1.

Using the Assembly from VB/C# is very easy:

- Add a reference to "AutoItX3.Assembly.dll" to your project

- Add a "using AutoIt;" statement in the files you want to use AutoIt functions

- Write code like this:

using AutoIt;
...

// No way, this is C#

AutoItX.Run("notepad.exe");
AutoItX.WinWaitActive("Untitled");
AutoItX.Send("I'm in notepad");
IntPtr winHandle = AutoItX.WinGetHandle("Untitled");
AutoItX.WinKill(winHandle);

Next step is to finish off adding the PowerShell cmdlets for the useful functions and then after that I can see if there are any new functions from AutoIt that should be added.

You can do the ToolTip functions directly from C/C++/<insert language of choice> take a look at the GUIToolTip.au3 file that comes with AutoIt to see how it's done in there. 

If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.

Not even sure what that means. The tooltips in the GUIToolTip UDF are created using the CreateWindowExW function from user32.dll, you don't need a GUI to use them. You don't even need AutoIt, which was my first point.
