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.

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.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • — The pitch and the rendering of the text, and its readability is an aspect that is systematically ignored by professional reviewers. PSPad has the best readability (using: Consolas). — The bookmarks are numbered, with good management, and their use is seamless. Thanks to the numbering system you can jump directly there with CTRL + number, that is, if you remember which is which! But then again, a real programmer is (or should be) like a music composer or a writer: they do know their lines of code, don't they. — Comparing files is practical and fast, no hassle. — Window wrap can be set on a per file basis, or globally when opening files. — Hex editor. This may not be useful for some, but has the merit of being there. — The toolset is comprehensive: good color tools + eye dropper, clipboard monitor, expression evaluator, a long list of convertors, and more. — Above all, PSPad is fast, intuitive, and responsive. What counts in the end is that the tool serves you, not the other way around...

Cons

  • — Not suitable for coders who prefer or need to work in close, or real time collaboration. — When a bug appears in a new build, it takes some time before it gets fixed.
