You can create an au3 script in any text editor with a "Save as" ability(i.e Notepad, Wordpad) However, the best editor to use is by far SciTE4Au3

You simply create a script, and save the file with a ".au3" extension, and autoit will then be able to execute it

Super easy Sample script:

MsgBox(0,"Hello", "You just made your first script! Cool huh? Congratulations!")

Open AutoIt helpfile (AutoIt.chm) and read sections:

- Running Scripts

- Script Editors --> I recommend to use Scite4Autoit3
