Charley Baker commented on WTR-440:
-----------------------------------

This is a tough one, since the recommendation is to move away from AutoIT 
entirely and depend on native calls through win32api, libffi or DL. I'd 
recommend sitting on this one for now until we resolve that first. Dumping 
AutoIT for official support is non-trivial.

> The AutoIt v3 ActiveX Control library (AutoItX3.dll) bundled with Watir1.6.5 
> is a very old version, (version 3.1.1.0), built back in 2005.
> As of 6/1/2010 the version of the library that is distributed with AutoIt's 
> installer is version 3.3.6.1. It contains many improvements, fixes and new 
> commands, functions and features, that could be useful with Watir if it were 
> included, instead of the down-rev version that is currently bundled with 
> Watir.
> See AutoIt's change log for details on the changes (from 3.1.1.0 to the 
> current version):
>   http://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/docs/history.htm
> The current AutoItX3 installer is available as a free download at:
>  http://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/index.shtml
> There is also a 64-bit version of the library (AutoITX3_x64.dll) that might 
> be of use to install with Watir on 64-bit systems.
