Meh, it's better than nothing. Though not a great interface or DSL.

2.0 fixes a ton of stuff over 1.0, but yeah you're not wrong.

Between custom keybinds, hot strings, and pop-up menus I have literally hundreds of tiny AHK scripts running 24/7. I'm pretty sure there's stuff I've literally forgotten is an AHK vs an actual part of Windows. It's all just ingrained in my muscle memory at this point.

Hammerspoon (Mac) is much better. It's basically Lua, with access to all the MacOS automation APIs.

		Hammerspoon is amazing, and LLMs are very good at writing configuration for it. I'm quite happy with my config.
