Forgive the stupid question, but where does one copy/paste your utility? --Squirrelloid 21:55, 8 January 2009 (EST)

You will want to download autohotkey, and then create a new script (basically a text file that ends with .ahk) in some folder (doesn't matter really, I have my DF related .ahk files in a sub folder in my DF catch all folder) and then copy/paste the code into the newly created text file and save it. Another way would be to [right click]->[new]->[autohotkey script] which creates a text file with the correct extension (.ahk). Once you have copy/pasted and saved the script, you just double click on the file, and it should launch a small icon in your system tray. Right clicking on it brings up several options, like 'freeze hotkeys', which is useful, and 'reload script' which is also useful if you plan on making any modifications to the script. Once the script is loaded and running (IE, the autohotkey icon is in your system tray) make sure dwarf fortress is active (click on it) and then activate the script be using the appropriate hotkey. (shift-r, iirc). NOTE: I've been having problems with my ahk scripts in the 40d# series, if you are using one of the 40d# releases, and the script won't work for you, try dropping down to the plain old 40d release. --Sinergistic 07:15, 9 January 2009 (EST)
