"savescript" is a very good addition. Here are some notes on the last version that you submitted:

In Func movescript(): There is no Call("idle") before the return (I originally forgot to put it in)

In Func savescript(): The Call("idle") is in the else of the last if statement...it shoud be moved to before the Return. Also: The first statement in this func has "$move_to_dir" as the second argument to FileSaveDialog...the quotes should be removed giving:

$filesave = FileSaveDialog("Save File", $move_to_dir, "Scripts (*.au3)", 2)

In Func help(): There is no Call("idle") before the Return (I originally forgot to put it in)

little improvement in savescript()

auto name .au3 and cancel added

maybe you can make someting that reads the title and put that in default

expandcollapse popup

On savescript(): The cancel logic is fine. I am inclined to just fill in a dummy default file name, something like the following and let the user change it:

$filesave = FileSaveDialog($title, $move_to_dir, "Scripts (*.au3)", 2 + 16, "afile.au3")

I have been thinking about the need for the Func idle(). I had a hunch that it was not needed, so:

* I removed all "Call idle()" statements in the whole script

* I removed the "Func idle()" statement and its matching "EndFunc ;==>idle", so that control "runs into" the idle while loop, as follows:

........no change above here in the script

TrayCreateItem("")

$quititem = TrayCreateItem("Quit Program CTRL+ Q")

While True

$msg = TrayGetMsg()

Select

........ the same body of the Select here

EndSelect

WEnd

........rest of the script with no call idle's

Without the Func idle and the "Call"s, the script runs exactly as before!!!! Simplifies maintenance, too...it's so easy to forget adding those "Call idle()" statements!

Hi, I actually have been using a simple script like this basically to help me with the examples on the Autoit Helpfile.

All you have to do is highlight the part of the script you'd like to run and hit the hotkey.

Here it is:

;ronriel's helper

HotKeySet ("^r", "Runscript") 
HotKeySet ("^e", "edit")
HotKeySet ("^t", "Terminate")

Local $temp = @TempDir&"\AutoitCode.Au3", $PID

Func Runscript();run the script
    get()
    $PID = Run(@AutoItExe&" "&$temp)
EndFunc

Func edit();edit the script with your editor, that is, if you have an editor set as the default program to open .au3 scripts.
    get()
    ShellExecute($temp)
EndFunc

Func Terminate();terminate the script.
    ProcessClose($PID)
EndFunc

Func get();retreive the script from the clipboard
    Send("^c")
    FileClose(FileWrite(FileOpen($temp,2),ClipGet()))
EndFunc

While 1
    Sleep (100000)
WEnd

Simple but helpful.
