When I attended undergrad my mentor, TK Clarke, mentioned how he thought Kermit / Sesame Street gave a false preconception that “learning should be easy”. While there are things that can to make it “easier” to learn, I do understand his point. Learning is “work” as your brain is, literally, “writing new pathways” in our brains🧠.
One thing we like to do in our AHK Courses is to create “bite-size” videos (usually between 3 and 6 minutes) so people can focus on one thing and not try to learn too many things all at once. We also put a lot of thought into the “flow” of our courses so people have a clear path to follow (this is especially helpful since AutoHotkey is a vast & robust language).
We also reduce the stress level of our students by offering a 200% money-back guarantee.
In our AHK Hero club, we tailor our answers to the skill / knowledge level of the member that asked the question. We even break up the calls where Friday we do more advanced topics and Saturdays are more “entry level” topics.
So, while hating on Kermit might be legit, it doesn’t have to be an all-or-nothing type mindset.
Now on with the show…

The offer was just for February 14th but I’ve extended the sale through tomorrow just in case you didn’t have time to respond. You can read the email and get the discounts here. Incidentally, I sent a separate email, offering 50% discount, to people that signed up for alerts on deals.

Updating A GUI doesn’t have to be Painful!
A lot of people use tools that create GUIs. These, on their surface, seem great however, when you go to update the GUI, it becomes a nightmare because everything is “locked into place”. In this video Isaias shows us that, if you’ve built the GUI well, updating a GUI doesn’t have to be painful. If you’d like to learn more about creating GUIs I highly recommend you check out our GUIs are Easy course. Don’t forget we take all the risk for you because we offer a 200% money-back guarantee!
Updating a Well Designed AutoHotkey GUI
AHK Save as Updater by Spracklen Design
Earlier this week I thought of a very simple script we should create that will help when saving files of a similar type. Earlier today Irfan finished the first version and, perhaps next week, we’ll release it. As I was writing this week’s AHK Newsletter I searched YouTube and happened to see this video which is a more advanced version of what I’d though of. It’s always cool to see how other people are using AutoHotkey… (It’s one thing I love about our AHK hero calls)
