Compiler Compression

[brett]

I dont want the compiler to compress the EXE at all, how can i stop the EXE Compression?

[Valik]

Why would you not want a compressed script? It would be over 200 kb uncompressed. And no, you can't disable the compression.

heh, i can do that without it being uncompressed, but i was going for the options in the right click on the icon

...i use reshack, not a hexeditor

Then create a backup copy of AutoItSC.bin, then modify AutoItSC.bin to do whatever you want and compile using your modified AutoItSC.bin.

cool, how would i add a menu item to it, then when u click it it goes to a function in the Autoit script?

I highly doubt that is possible without one of the developers writing an interface to make that happen (In which case, your whole idea is null). You might be able to hack something so that it launches another application which can communicate back to your main script. But as far as settting up a callback for a new menu item, that's something you can't do without doing it in the source.

IIRC custom tray menus was on the todo list.

[Valik]

What I meant was. It requires actual coding to implement, which means your idea of using ResHacker or some other hacking program to hack a custom menu in is not necessary because it will be built-in.

ok i understand
