Action-Ahk2Exe

A Github actions script gets the compiler files from github repositories instead autohotkey.com to bypass cloudflare DDoS protection.

Inputs

Input	Type	Requied	Description
in	String	Yes	Name (and path if not root) of file to compile
out	String	No	Name (and path if not root) to give the compiled script
version	String	No	Version to compile with, as a Github tag
bits	String or Number	No	Compiler bit count (also specify U before bits for unicode, v1 only)
icon	String	No	Name (and path if not root) of icon

Remarks

While this actions should work with v1.1 scripts, it should be noted that really old versions of AutoHotkey will not work, as their directory structure in releases is different

The compiler can only convert file in each step, this will change in the future

Finally, this action will only run on windows-latest
