AutoHotkey is a powerful automation and scripting tool with an option to export to a self-contained executable. Possible uses include assigning the hotkey "Ctrl-Alt-F" to launch Firefox, making abbreviations expand to their full definition as you type them, or saving time by setting the computer to auto-click a confirmation screen.
The program can create entire applications and has been used to create many hosted here on PortableFreeware including 7plus, WallPaper Randomizer, Gridy and many more.
Note: Though it's bit outdated (from 2021), Pulover's Macro Creator can be used as a macro recorder and includes an "Export to AHK" function.

Lock State provides a simple, and customizable, on screen display in the lower right corner of the desktop to show the states of the NumLock, CapsLock and ScrollLock keys. When a lock key is pressed the OSD will appear, and a optional sound will play. Lock State can also lock the keys into their current states, so even if a lock key is pressed its state will not change. States can even be saved between sessions, so all states will be restored to what they were the last time Lock State was running.
Lock state is written in the AutoHotkey language.

Lintalist is a context-sensitive text expander with abbreviations, shortcuts, plugins, and scripts. It allows you to store and (incrementally) search and edit texts in bundles and paste a selected text in your active program. Entered text can be interactive, such as automatically inserting the current time and date, requesting (basic) user input, or making a selection from a list, as well as running a script.
The program supports keyboard shortcuts or abbreviations to paste the text (or run a script) without opening the search window, and allows images and formatted text, including HTML, markdown, and RTF.

I strongly suppose that, every time you enter a search, this program will connect not only to the Longman database but will also establish connections either to Google or Amazon (the two biggest tracking firms this poor, abused globe has ever seen). The website with the pure online version doesn't even load if I block Amazon. If someone else tests it and finds out that it doesn't connect either to Google or Amazon, I will download it. :-) |

I switched to this from ArsClip about five years ago and love it. Win 10 now provides some of the functionality, but Clipjump has important options, and I have it configured to store my old clipboards. (Disk space is cheap, and it's really great to get be able to find some mundane info you cut-&-pasted a few weeks earlier.) |
Gridy adds an invisible grid on your desktop so that any window you move or resize is snapped to it. This helps maximize screen real estate by making windows placed adjacent to each other dynamically adjust to avoid overlapping.
Snapping to the grid is enabled with mouse drag or keyboard arrow keys. Gridy also lets you store and restore a window's size and position in up to 9 slots. This is useful for quickly arranging your windows in a convenient way. In addition, you can hide the window's Alt-Tab icon, and set any window semi-transparent or to "Always on Top."

Found a bug when generating new Preferences.ini files. If you've started anew with TypingAid since v2.19.7, it's probably best to delete your preferences.ini, but it will fix the TerminatingCharacters entry IF you have not modified that entry since the Preferences.ini was created.

v. 2.9.2.0 Recompiled with latest AHK_L. Zip also includes latest MilesAhead.ahk include file and PromptHere.ahk source. v. 2.9.1.0 Fixed error if Set Hotkey is closed via Escape key or clicking the 'x' without setting a hotkey, then opened again. v. 2.9.0.0 Updated code that opens prompt in current folder when none are selected. No longer requires keyboard macro to shift up a directory in the path. Default Mouse Hotkey changed to Control-MiddleMouseButton(see Suggestion about Alt key above.) v. 2.8.1.0 Updated About Dialog. v. 2.8 Added user selectable keyboard hotkey to open a prompt in DesktopDir as set in .ini file. v. 2.7 IniEdit updated to 1.6. Accepts file to open via drag & drop. v. 2.6 IniEdit updated to 1.5. Now pressing Control-t swaps the 2 characters to the left of the insertion point. (If your typo is "thsi" instead of "this" you can fix it by hitting Control-t with the insertion point to the right of the 'i'.) Note that editor new accepts Tab key. To tab out to buttons from edit box, use Control-Tab. v. 2.5 Added option in Tray Menu to Edit IniFile. Included tiny Glass .ini editor. Editor requires .NET 3.0 or later with Glass enabled. Otherwise the .ini file will be opened via file association. v. 2.4 Smoothed the blur effect so that it's there when the prompt is first shown if Glass is enabled. v. 2.3 Added .ini option DesktopDir. Default dir is C:\ if you click on a blank space on the Desktop while desktop is the "active window." v. 2.2 Glass feature of prompt may be disabled on Vista or Windows Seven by setting "UseGlass" setting in .ini file to 0. EnableBlurBehind which gives the glass effect, works best if the background color is black. If you have customized your system command prompt to another color and the effect does not look good, set UseGlass to 0 in the .ini file if desired. v. 2.1 Glass feature now incorporated into the PromptHere exe. The command prompt glass was "translated" from AutoIt3 code by Michael Michta, to AutoHotKey functions. Thanks to Michael Michta for showing me the way to do this in AutoIt3. v. 2.0 Now uses "blur behind" for Glass prompt if Glass is enabled on Vista or Windows Seven. 7prompt.exe must be in the same folder as PromptHere otherwise an error will occur. v. 1.5.3.3 Included source and icon in download. No longer using UPX compression to avoid av "false positives." |

Very useful application for those versed with the iPhone shortcut as suggested by the developer. For those who are not so familiar, it will be provide less typing than ordinarily supplying a period, space and a capital. Works well across MS Office applications, notepad apps (Notepad, Notepad++, etc), graphic apps like Paint.NET, Fotografix etc.

I believe if you look at the Stick-It! source code you will see that I use almost that exact code. But Stick-It! is nice and shiny, and has audio visual effects! Besides, most people do not use AutoHotkey and releasing it as a compiled exe greatly broadens the potential user base. |
WinSize2 provides several window management tools in one. The program automatically re-sizes windows according to predefined sizes, saves and restores icon positions on the desktop that get moved during resolution changes, and even renames window titles or and can send an application predefined characters (e.g. some Tab characters to set the focus in the window to a special field).
The program stores individual window positions for unique resolution settings (e.g. larger screens settings may want larger sizes to fit the screen precisely).

GridMove tries to make windows management easier by defining a visual grid on your desktop, to which you can easily snap windows. This program comes bundled with some predefined grid templates that can be easily swapped, but also includes ways to create custom grids and share them with others.
Additional features include tools for resizing, displaying windows in cascade or mosaic views, and making a window remain on top, and more.
Created using AutoHotkey.

I've been meaning to try this just so I can emulate the AeroSnap feature from Windows 7 on Windows XP.

This program is amazing. It's the only one I've found so far that actually let's you define a GRID as opposed to merely snapping windows to borders or resizing windows in increments.

So I finally had a chance to test this app. |
Eclipse quickly encrypts/decrypt text, useful for adding security to instant messaging and email conversations. A customizable hotkey system (by default Ctrl+Shift+E) works on highlighted text to copy encrypted text to the clipboard after prompting for a password. Secure text can then be pasted into any editor or application and then decrypted via the same method.
The program is an interface for a command-line utility called MySecret, which uses the Blowfish encryption algorithm. Eclipse is written in AutoHotkey.

Using your own photos/Images portably without the need to access and change the settings in 7 would be one reason. |

Using the numpad was an obvious setting for me, but that's why all the hotkeys are configurable in the single .ini file to set to your needs.
