New to AutoIt

[blessthefall]

Hey guys, i'm newer with autoit.

Just curious how to import variables from one script to another for the sake of being user friendly so that i can distribute it to friends who have no autoit experience.

For instance:

#####Script 1#####

$x = 1

$y = 2

$z = 3

###############

#####Script 2#####

$sum = $x + $y + $z

Send ($sum)

###############

I suspect that it has something to do with #Include, but i'm a nub. Any help is surely appreciated.

For such purposes I'd use IniWrite() and IniRead(), and just *ONE* script.

Have a look at IniReadSection() and IniWriteSection() as well.

That's also possible, but it makes no difference whether your friends have to recompile a 2nd prog or just an "all-in-one-Prog" muttley

This is a quick example for your thought:

; script1.au3
#include <script2.au3> ; save script2.au3 as %Programfiles%\Autoit3\include\script2.au3

$x = 1
$y = 2
$z = 3

MsgBox(64,"Result",MyCalc($x,$y,$z))oÝ÷ Ù©Ý~íí§vÇ+ZºÚ"µÍÈØÜ]LÂ[È^PØ[Ê   ÌÍÓØØ[ ÌÍÓØØ[K    ÌÍÓØØ[BT]  ÌÍÓØØ[
    ÌÍÓØØ[H
    ÌÍÓØØ[[[

I should have been a bit more clear... i would actually prefer to keep them separate for the sake of script integrity. I'd already have the script that's not intended for editing compiled.

the way rudi showed is the only way i think

Then rudi's first suggestion of using IniWrite() & IniRead() is the simplest.

Have your first script IniWrite() the values (I'm guessing based on some sort of user inpuut, or settings unique to the computer it's running on?).

Then have your 2nd, non-editable script IniRead() those values into the required variables.
