Wish List

Here is a list of potential Vocola enhancements. Let me know if any of these are particularly important to you.

New built-in functions:

  • ExecutePreviousCommands(howManyCommands, howManyTimes)
  • Functions to save and restore the current mouse position
  • Function like ShellExecute(), but which doesn't return until the command has completed
  • better support for switching between applications

Language improvements:

  • Keystroke sequences using "Windows" modifier key (e.g. {Win+e} to start Windows Explorer)
  • Allow variables in alternative sets (e.g. <direction> | foo | bar)
  • Allow default values in alternative sets
  • Repeatable terms (e.g. Press <modifier_key>+ <key> = ...)
  • better interface to/from Python

Other:

  • Runtime error messages in terms of Vocola source files, not translated python files.
  • Ability to interoperate with Unimacro
  • Option to store command files in user-specified folder(s).
    [Note: Scott's installer now allows you to specify one additional folder.]
