[Suggestion] Please add AutoHotkey section to Coders Den

Please add AutoHotkey section to Coders Den.

There is AutoIt section which as I see is quite popular. AutoHotkey has nearly all futures of AutoIt and plus more powerful hotkey support. Also it is free and open source. AutoHotkey is quite popular tool for bot creation and I think it deserves its own section.

AutoHotkey official website:

You can just use the AutoIt Section. The most people know both languages.

Then it will be more correct to rename AutoIt section to AutoIt and AutoHotkey or to AutoHotkey and AutoIt.

Or you could use General Coding section as well. There really isn't a huge demand und thus no need for an additional section, I see AHK threads every few weeks or so.

I think that there will be demand if there will be separate section. AutoHotkey is very good for game automation and much better than any other solution if automation is related to hotkeys. Huge part of game automation is related with hotkeys. So I think AutoHotkey deserves its own section here.

I added a poll.
In my opinion it is enough to have one section for AutoIt and AutoHotkey.

[Moneypulation]

I'm also for the suggestion to rename AutoIt to AutoIt and AutoHotKey

[Lumi]

I am for rename the autoit section too.

There are way more programming languages which deserves a own section before Autohotkey.
If there will be a new section for this not widely used language, then we will need a bunch more.

The coding section is not used so frequently that there is an actual need to split it into smaller chunks.

1. The big part of game automation is related to hotkeys and AutoHotkey is most easy and fast in development solution for that.
2. AutoHotkey is also very good solution for other types of game automation (Pixels, Image matching, Mouse and keyboard simulation and etc.).
3. AutoHotkey is easier to learn than many other programming languages. Also in same time AutoHotkey is quite powerful(GUI, Mcode, Objects, COM, Regex, etc.).

Look at section. It is quite popular. More popular then C/C++ and .NET Languages together. As section shows there is demand more in that kind of languages than in others. Both AutoIt and AutoHotkey are languages of the same class.




Also:
I think that renaming AutoIt section is OK. But making separates sections for AutoIt and AutoHotkey is much better. AutoIt section is already quite big and have its own users. I don't think they will be glad to see another language in their section.

Yes, please add the AHK section!
