Is there anything more annoying than typing a password 5x and then having to move your hand to the mouse to click? Ok yeah there are lots of things more annoying, but this week this particular annoyance was top of my multiboxing to-do list (more on this later). AutoHotKey is a freeware scripting program that I've been using for at least the last six years to handle many custom tweaks to computer input. The number one thing I use it for is to open the downloads folder ...

So I've been practicing for years but I'm not sure if that means I'm actively getting better.
