About

The ActionScript® scripting language lets you add complex interactivity, playback control, and data display to your application. You can add ActionScript in the authoring environment by using the Actions panel, Script window, or an external editor. ActionScript follows its own rules of syntax, and reserved keywords, and lets you use variables to store and retrieve information. ActionScript includes a large library of built‑in classes that let you create objects to perform many useful tasks. You do not have to understand every ActionScript element to begin scripting. If you have a clear goal, you can start building scripts with simple actions. ActionScript and JavaScript are both rooted in the ECMA-262 standard, the international standard for the ECMAScript scripting language. For this reason, developers who are familiar with JavaScript can find ActionScript immediately familiar. Animate includes more than one version of ActionScript to meet the needs of different kinds of developers.
AutoIt:

About

AutoIt v3 is a freeware BASIC-like scripting language designed for automating the Windows GUI and general scripting. It uses a combination of simulated keystrokes, mouse movement, and window/control manipulation in order to automate tasks in a way not possible or reliable with other languages. We looked at many editors to see which one was the most useful editor for AutoIt. We found SciTE and saw its potential and wrote a customized Lexer for the syntax highlighting and syntax folding and created a special installer called SciTE4AutoIt3. AutoIt was initially designed for PC "roll out" situations to reliably automate and configure thousands of PCs. Over time it has become a powerful language that supports complex expressions, user functions, loops and everything else that veteran scripters would expect.AutoIt is also very small, self-contained and will run on all versions of Windows out-of-the-box with no annoying "runtimes" required.
JavaScript:

About

JavaScript is a scripting language and programming language for the web that enables developers to build dynamic elements on the web. Over 97% of the websites in the world use client-side JavaScript. JavaScript is one of the most important scripting languages on the web. Strings in JavaScript are contained within a pair of either single quotation marks '' or double quotation marks "". Both quotes represent Strings but be sure to choose one and STICK WITH IT. If you start with a single quote, you need to end with a single quote. There are pros and cons to using both IE single quotes tend to make it easier to write HTML within Javascript as you don’t have to escape the line with a double quote. Let’s say you’re trying to use quotation marks inside a string. You’ll need to use opposite quotation marks inside and outside of JavaScript single or double quotes.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Flexible language, wide support for Windows functions
  • Used AutoIt nearly every day for 5 years or more, at a large multinational, and have written dozens of applications, including data scrapers, report parsers, barcode readers, and mission critical tools to monitor critical hardware and alert support staff if that hardware goes offline. It has a pretty flat learning curve. It creates standalone executables, and (for the most part) doesn’t require any .dll files to be deployed. There’s downloadable help and a custom version of the SciTE code editor. You can also use Visual Studio Code, as there’s an AutoIt plugin available for that.
  • The product itself is good, the community is not. Iv'e used this product for years, however i've refrained from too much activity in the forums due to the below.

Cons

  • Although the code is easily decompilable to the original source format, it needs some sort of obfuscator like the one made by PELock—AutoIt Obfuscator—to prevent source code theft from the competition. Support forums is terrible, they hide any post claiming how easy is to decompile AutoIt executable back to the source code...
  • AutoIt is Windows only. If you’re a Linux shop, look elsewhere.
  • The mod team and devs are horrible. They don't even understand the word automation and that is the entire reason for this application.
