Cacher is the code snippet organizer for pro developers

; This is part of my AutoHotKey [1] script. When you are in Windows Explorer it
; allows you to press Ctrl+Alt+N and type a filename, and that file is created
; in the current directory and opened in the appropriate editor (usually
; [gVim](http://www.vim.org/) in my case, but it will use whatever program is
; associated with the file in Windows Explorer).

; This is much easier than the alternative that I have been using until now:
; Right click > New > Text file, delete default filename and extension (which
; isn't highlighted in Windows 7), type the filename, press enter twice.
; (Particularly for creating dot files like ".htaccess".)

; Credit goes to aubricus [2] who wrote most of this - I just added the
; 'IfWinActive' check and 'Run %UserInput%' at the end.
