Autohotkey module managing and developing framework.

a2

AutoHotkey is an awesome little scripting language to automate and simplify all things Windows.
(See Tom Scott ranting about it on YouTube)
a2 helps getting, updating scripts and developing your own.

Basically a2 is an AutoHotkey runtime running in the background that you conveniently configure with a Qt for Python UI.

Features for this background app come via modules bundled in packages.
Each module can have various script or configuration files
and is presented with its own frontend UI to setup Hotkey shortcuts, Variables ect...
These frontend UIs are comprised of reusable elements that a developer can easily arrange.

See the Wiki for more information especially:

• How to use a2.
• How to develop a2.
