June 29, 08 Scripting Has A Zillion Applications, Man! (Version 3.0)

A collection of simple scripts for beginning scripters. Conveniently, some of them also show off the "Gee Whiz" factor of a Mac, to impress your Windows-using friends. All scripts are editable and have comments that describe how to use them. Scripts included for iCal, TextEdit, Mail, iTunes, the Finder and more! Crunch some code!

Requirements: Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger), scripts should also work with 10.5 (Leopard).

Version 3.0 Notes:

• Almost 2 times as many scripts as version 2.0
• Added scripts for Folder Actions, graphics conversion, others.
• Collection no longer has scripts that require the Nite Flite library.

Getting started at AppleScripting isn't as hard as you might think. These very simple scripts cover several topics. Designed for the person that doesn't know how to program at all, they show you how easy it is to get started with Apple's "english-like" scripting language.

If you've never written a single line of code before, you can learn the basics of AppleScript in a day. Like chess, though, AppleScript takes "minutes to learn, a lifetime to master." As you learn more, you'll discover the true power of Apple's ultimate user-customization tool, AppleScript.

Another great free gift for GeekSuit visitors!
