Interesting program that seems to offer quite a bit of very flexible automation. The scripting language it uses is MIT-licensed, but the software itself is closed freeware.

Great news, thanks.

New home page: http://www.perfectautomation.com/

I looked into this a while back and was annoyed that some of the mouse automation tools aren't easier but otherwise looked very capable. Knowing it's genuinely portable I might see if my analysis was premature.

Portable Automation - windows macro tool

#5 Post by webfork »

First mentioned here: viewtopic.php?p=63600#p63600

Although this was very promising, I ran into some intro problems. The portable version won't save to the default record directory for some reason. Then, after saving it to the desktop (it creates three files: .PA, .PAM, and .EXE), I couldn't figure out how to pull it back into the program. I finally opened it in the script editor and then it wouldn't run. *shrug*

On the upside, the EXE files it generates are worthwhile and useful with various speeds and repeat sequences. That alone is a good alternative to TinyTask for simple automation tasks.

Topic update: last Portable Automation release was v2.7.0, dated 2010-03-01 (changelog at https://www.perfectautomation.com/version-history.html).

Apparently the project was superseded by Gentee Script Programming Language.

Gentee -- script programming language for automation. It uses VM and compiler written in Go (Golang). Gentee is a free open source script programming language. The Gentee programming language is designed to create scripts to automate repetitive actions and processes on your computer. If you use or plan to use .bat files, bash, PowerShell or special programs to automate actions, then try doing the same thing with Gentee.

After some success with another old automation tool Mouse Recorder, I might dig into this. I like the idea of something that improves on existing batch files.
