Writing a .au3 file and compiling it from a script?

[Glyph]

Let's say, my script makes a script and saves it as .au3,

then it acknowledges that it has been written, then compiles it.

I want to know if I can compile it after writing it form the same script.

Maybe include autoit3.exe and run the parameters on there comp with the same script?

I'm not sure if this would work or if this has been done already....

feel free to help me!

Yeah, many people did this. Right now, I can only remember JustinReno's "WebBrowser creator" Check it out.

you can inlclude the compiler (aut2exe.exe) and use the command line syntax from the help file-

The Aut2Exe.exe program can be run from the command line as follows:

Aut2exe.exe /in <infile.au3> [/out <outfile.exe>] [/icon <iconfile.ico>] [/nodecompile] [/comp 0-4] [/pass <passphrase>] [/nopack] [/ansi] [/unicode]

Long filenames should be enclosed in double-quotes like "C:\Program Files\Test\test.au3". If no "out" file is given the input filename is used with a .exe extension.
