If I compile my script to run in console mode and hit control-C as it is running it will terminate the program but not run OnAutoItExit.

I "worked around" the issue by using HotKeySet( "^{c", "ControlC" ) and have that function call an Exit command which triggers OnAutoItExit. This is undesirable as it traps Control-C everywhere even when I am trying to copy and paste in another program.}

Hi,

I found that DirMove() having problem (limitation?) when trying to move directory with overwrite flag.

Let's say we want to move «C:\Source» to «C:\Dest» and overwrite all existing files & folders, source dir includes some files and folders, and also destination dir having files and folders in it. Now we trying to move:

DirMove("C:\Source", "C:\Dest", 1)

What we get, is that «Source» directory moved to «C:\Dest\», and not as a content, but as whole root folder.

For now, the only way to move the content of «Source» directory, is to copy it first, and then delete the source, like this:

DirCopy("C:\Source", "C:\Dest", 1)
DirRemove("C:\Source")

but it's take more time, and more operations.

So i only proposing to change the behaviout of DirMove; if we use 1 as third parameter (overwrite files), just move the content of the source directory, if users want to put it inside as a folder, they just do this:

DirMove("C:\Source", "C:\Dest\Source", 1)

P.S And i know about the ​note in help file, i just think that this is wrong behaviour.

Is it a bug or feature request? I assume a bug, but feel free to move it to feature requests. Windows 7 is totally different to Vista. AutoIt runs fine on Windows 7, but I would like to differentiate between the two OS. I think, @OSVersion should show "WIN_7" in Windows 7. If you need more infos or test runs, feel free to "engage" me. ;-)
