I share here a small AutoHotkey script to provide a nice Confluence version information with a link to it.
Problem description
We use a Document History subpage to document the versioning of a Confluence document i.e. based on a multiple pages. We would like document the document version with a nice link to the date information.
Implementation
Implementation relies on the Confluence API.
See gist.

| sHtml := "<a href=""" . sLink . """>" . sText . "</a>" | |

| #If Confluence_IsWinActive() | |
| ::,ver:: ; Page version info | |
| sHtml := Confluence_GetVerLink(url:="") | |
| Clip_PasteHtml(sHtml) | |
| return |
It is also included in the PowerTool Confluence Library, function Confluence_GetVerLink.
Usage
Simple type ,ver and it will automagically expand into something like:
If the page name starts with "Document History" or "Workproduct History" it will look for the version information of the parent page.
