Is there a list?

[faldo]

Since there are alot of new functions being added to AutoIT all the time (like game.dll etc.), is there a blogg or a list of new functions and a short description of what they do somewhere?

Would be real usefull to know the full potential of AutoIT

List of functions in the help file. All .dll stuff is sorta dependant on how well whoever wrote the DLL documented it. There is a collection of UDFs beig made to be released with the download, I don't know whether DLLs would fall under this remit too, or maybe a seperate package pulling together useful stuff?

Ok... would you happen to know if i can use any dll or do i need to call functions from the dlls created specificly for AutoIT?

You can use any DLL in theory, many of the good examples posted on the forum use standard Windows DLLs, such as user32.dll. However, not all the parameter certain function calls in DLLs require are supported by AutoIt (I don't know much of the ins and outs myself, as it's not something I've really used yet), so I suggest you carefully read the DLLCall page in the help file as this should help you see what you can and can't do.
