New in Actionaz 3.0.0 (Nov 18, 2011)

  • It will be possible to write scripts by encoding only the actions, like AutoIt. The language used is EcmaScript (like Javascript).
  • Unlike the latter, it is also possible to debug a script with support for breakpoints, changes in live variables, etc..
  • It will be possible to create script files used in the same way as Actionaz 2, but also to create files of code that will allow even more flexibility. (although with the need to know how to program in Javascript)
  • Some classes of code used: play a sound, connect UDP or TCP, to download a file, display a window with custom fields, etc..
  • The number of shares will be multiplied by three, maybe not for the first version, but there are so many possibilities for action that I could almost get a new weekly ...
  • Each parameter is fully variable action, meaning that each parameter can be a piece of code that will be evaluated at runtime.
  • Small handy features such as drag & drop actions, the fact of undo or redo an action will also be present.
