Top 3 C++ Autohotkey Projects
-
Project mention: I tried every todo app and ended up with a .txt file | news.ycombinator.com | 2025-08-11
One useful addition for text file users: on Windows, create hotkey\macro timestamps using something like Autohotkey (https://autohotkey.com/)
3 letter hotkeys seem to work well - long enough to be unique without overlapping real words.
for instance, when I type ddd it automatically stamps this:
20250811 10:57 AM
then I type my note and can look back at what time\date it was.
sometimes I just need the date so that is dds (date-date-short) which gives
20250811
occasionally I just want the time so that's ttt
11:02:02 AM
I have many other 3 letter codes using Autohotkey to bring in frequently typed things too, useful in emails and such.
Since I think through typing, autohotkey has been a QoL helper.

I made an alternative to convar helper so you can easily activate your favorite cheats and other vconsole commands, and it's versatile enough to use for other purposes too!
