Bungle in the jungle

2/21/2022: WFH, long hours, long weeks (plus-side, commuting across the hall, has *distinct* benefits!😁) == *no* recent posts. But, I have still been churning out rafts of code! Which you can check out over at my GitHub Repos:github.com/tostka. Variety of tech & home toys built. Just no time these days to post about 'em. 😲🤷😂

Visual Studio Code: Autohotkey-based popup Cheatsheet for Keyboard Shortcuts

11/29/2016: I like Visual Studio Code a lot - it's got some warts, and gaps, but there's some thing's it does amazingly well (and some it sort of stumbles at). If you write in Powershell, it's probably the best/lightest/most-stable editor I've found, with the range of features you get, and rampant-growth and availability in user-created extensions -  (Though it really needs better-rounded debugging... *grumble* ;P) .

Anyway, one of my pet peeves for 'Code.exe' is it's lack of good quick popup references for common tasks - well that and some of it's interface & control choices that don't match most of the common keystrokes and mouse behaviors I've gotten used to in other editors.

Autohotkey fills the gap!

Toward that end, the below is an Autohotkey-based quick-n-dirty Popup Cheatsheet for Visual Studio Code. If you use  AHK & 'Code', you might find this gapfills a niche.

Autohotkey hotkeys for Ecco Pro

11/29/2016: I've committed to actively trying to post more of what I write for code snippets, time-permitting. :D
Today, frustration at a lack of the functional hotkeys I wanted in the old EccoPro outliner, led me to throw together some quick functions in Autohotkey.

This is very sketchy very quick & dirty, simple menu-automation. Gets the job done. I guess at most it'd save someone five mins or so tossing the necessary AHK Send commands together from scratch. :D
