This file contains only the most general info about Hotstrings project.
There are dedicated repositiories where you can find more information:
- help: Hotstrings-help
- free set of Libraries: Hotstrings-Libraries
- localization of GUI: Hotstrings-Languages
- additional conversion scripts and miscellaneous other files: Hotstrings-Tools
Just download this file from this repository and run it.
Caveat: many anti-virus software may warn you about virus threat or threat related to installation of software from unknown source. Advantage: installer installs not only Hotstrings application, but also set of libraries and other files (license, icon, etc.).
- Installer can be run in silent mode. To do so run it from command line wit /S switch (capital letter is mandatory).
- Default location of all the files: c:\users<user>\AppData\Local\Hotstrings.
- Installer source code is available here.
Just download this file. To run it you will need so called AutoHotkey interpreter. You can easily install it as standalone application. Just visit the AutoHotkey webpage, download and install it.
Advantages:
- You will be able to run any AutoHotkey script, not only Hotstrings.
- No virus warnings.
- Full access to source code (happy hacking!).
The script is prepared to create / prepare all necessary files and folders upon the first run. I strongly recommend you to install it in default folder (c:\users<user>\AppData\Local\Hotstrings).
Caveat: Libraries are not installed by script itself. You will need to download them manually from here or from application menu.
Just download and run this file.
Caveat: many anti-virus software may warn you about virus threat or threat related to installation of software from unknown source.
Advantage:
- You don't need to install any other executable, as the AutoHotkey interpreter is bundled with script in this executable.
- The executable will create / prepare all necessary files and folders upon the first run. I strongly recommend you to install it in default folder (c:\users<user>\AppData\Local\Hotstrings).
