    I love Autohotkey! I've used it a lot to speed up repetitive data entry tasks. But it's very powerful. Much like Tasker for Android.

    I just commented a couple days ago I want to learn it as soon I have time because is very powerful.
    It can save you a lot of time or just allow you to do very useful things with minimal programming skills.

    I'm a programmer, so I could accomplish a lot of what it does using the Windows APIs already. I still use it (Autohotkey) because it encapsulates a lot of those things (keyboard hooking, window creation hooking, etc.) in a very easy to setup fashion.
    Hadn't really thought about using it to help my workflow inside of my DAW, so that's a great idea there, @Rudy Manterie!
