    I have no experience with languages like C#,C++ PHP etc. Neither do i have any intention of learning those languages any time soon. My question revolves around AutoIT and it's useability in Bot creation.

    I know it can be done, but is it worth the time and effort it takes to learn that particular script language?

    Any limitations that puts AutoIT out of the question?

    Any BH communities around that converse about AutoIT?

    Thank you.

    yeah just checked AutoIT out, seems like a hobbiest project.. I learnt BASIC when I was 14, even then it was out of date....

    Anyhoo.

    Simple starter for ten, what BOT would you like to build?

    Check out WinAutomation if you want something with usability for a non-programmer.
