Here's what we really need - a tool that monitors the various user actions like specific application functionality used, website actions taken, and maybe keystrokes too (but that gets dicey), and then every month or so it recommends the most frequently done actions that you should automate with AHK or some other tool. What does the community think of this?
PS - I use Alfred and Keyboard Maestro to get functionality similar to AHK on a Mac.
I might be misremembering, but I think there was a package for Emacs that would track the most frequently used M-x commands, so that you could later look at the list and see which ones are worth binding to a key. I can't for the love of me find it now.
theres a function somebody wrote (acc.ahk) that can detect elements and text in a lot of windows programs. it can click things like the "add to library" button in spotify even when the window is minimised
there is the COM object that detect the same sort of things but in web browsers, but it only works in IE only. for firefox or chrome you would need to use selenium.
maybe these things can detect certain things being clicked as well? i dont know
