AutoHotkey v2?

To what extent does FastKeys use the new AutoHotkey v2 language? I'm currently in the process of converting my AHK scripts to v2, and was wondering whether and/or when you will swicth to v2? I am most likely going to move all my old AHK script into FastKeys, but was wondering about starting to learn...

Re: text inserted with FastKeys (or any AutoHotkey-based script or program) getting garbled in certain programs

Thanks Marko!

So I did what you said (I set the key Delay to 30ms), and it worked! However, as a test, I then removed the key Delay, and reloaded FastKeys, and then it also worked. Very strange. In any case, next time I will fiddle with the key Delay time to see if I can fix it.

If I then paste the passowrd in normally, i.e., I copy it from Notepad ...

text inserted with FastKeys (or any AutoHotkey-based script or program) getting garbled in certain programs

Hi guys, I'm having a very strange problem where text inserted with FastKeys (or any AutoHotkey-based script or program for that matter) is getting garbled, but only in certain programs. I made a quick video to explain the problem: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qbDXMlLDQ5k Instead of this: <EditIt...

Re: assign Text Expander strings to items in my Start Menu?

Thanks Marko, Yes, this is what I am currently doing. I'm just a little worried about duplicating data over time, as well as the problem of how to update & maintain the two separate flows over time. I think that if it was my program, I would consider rethinking the general structure of the UI, w...

assign Text Expander strings to items in my Start Menu?

Hi there, It would be very useful to be able to merge the functionality of the Start Menu and Text Expander, as follows: I'd love to be able to assign Text Expander strings to items in my Start Menu. Otherwise, I seem to be duplicating functionality, where I have the item in my Start menu for quick ...

Re: Possible bug when trying to copy large amount of text.

Ha ha, yes, I know, my case is perhaps a bit extreme, but I work with very large dictionaries/glossaries, which I store in .csv format, and they can easily get up to several GBs. E.g., one .csv dictionary file might contain 500,000 lines, each line with 15 columns, including stuff like source/target...
