That doesn't seem to happen with AutoHotkey. If your app is just a couple of buttons that run external commands then that kind of thing isn't going to change between interpreter versions.
You can easily replicate.bat functionality with AHK. AHK is absolute genius; simple, fast, portable, and the ability to compile the script to.exe is flatout awesome.
Compiled size starts around 200KB-220KB, which consists of the ahk interpreter and the script, and a dll that you can strip out and save 30KB if you really want to - but for the purpose of the OP you wouldn't as it would risk the portability, and AHK is fantastic - it's basically the.bat mentality for the win32 world with a few tweaks and prettier interface.
