Information on this project can be found on its start page.

Contributing

Please help me with this project. Add your posts, ideas, knowledge, experience to help AutoHotkey beginners, and to provide a reference for advanced users!

To contribute, do the following:

• if you're on github:
  • PM me on github or in the AutoHotkey forums
  • fork the project
  • IMPORTANT: change the url setting in _config.yml to 'http://[your username].github.com/ahkbook'
  • do your changes and additions, optionally creating new branches
  • if you have access to a Linux / Ubuntu / ... system or VM, consider installing Jekyll locally
  • test if it works
  • send me a pull request when you're done
• otherwise send me your comments, ideas, patches, ... via the AutoHotkey forums or PM me there.

In either way,

• add your posts
• author posts mentioned in the index
• improve and complete existing posts
• translate posts in other languages (place them in a corresponding folder, such as de/_posts or fr/_posts).
• add yourself to the list of contributors with a website of your choice ;-)

Important note:

This project is processed with Jekyll. Check it out before contributing. This doesn't mean you need to install Jekyll, the contents are automatically processed on github. But if you install it, you have (of course) better control about what you push to your github repo. With Jekyll, you can write your posts in HTML, Markdown (like this file) or Textile.

Another important note:

AutoHotkey syntax highlighting via {% highlight ahk %} currently doesn't work. I created an issue on Jekyll to address this. If anyone (a Ruby programmer?) knows how to fix this, please do so and send the author a pull request.

Issues:

• UTF-8 [FIXED!]
• AHK Syntax
• GFM
