AutoIt permits Windows GUI automation and provides some all-purpose scripting to alleviate the repetitiveness of various routine tasks.

It designed BASIC-like scripting that allows you to utilize a combination of simulated keystrokes, mouse movement, and window/control manipulation to automate tasks in a way not possible or reliable with other languages (i.e., VBScript and SendKeys). With AutoIt, programmers can effectively simulate keyboard and mouse actions, enabling the creation of scripts specifically for routine actions. Using AutoIt will additionally help you to manipulate windows and processes. You have access to a helpful info tool that provides you with information about the opened window, including title, class, style, position, dimensions as well, as internal Win32 API handles.

The authors intended AutoIt for PC “roll out” situations allowing reliable automation and configuration of multiple PCs. Over time it has become a powerful language that supports complex expressions, user functions, loops, and everything else that veteran scripters expect.
