I am brand new to Macs and have run into a wall. You see, I am TRYING to send keystrokes to the active window. Under Windows XP, it was a VERY simple process using vbscript_: Code: --------- Dim oShell Set oShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell") DooShell.SendKeys "Enter some text here" oShell.SendKeys "{ENTER}" WScript.Sleep 850000 Loop --------- This would, regardless of the application, send the keystrokes to the active window. I am having a hell of a time trying to duplicate this simple process with AppleScript. I have Googled until blue in the face, and have not found anything like what I was doing with VBScript. Can anyone point me in the right direction? ... Source: forums.macrumors.com --- 19 days ago

A MacNN forum poster reports on a serious flaw in Mac OS X's implementation of AppleScript. Essentially, applications that are running as root can accept AppleScript commands from applications that are not running as root -- and since every Cocoa application automatically gets some basic AppleScript support, this means that any time a Cocoa applica... ...

Often programs like PearLyrics or SingThatiTune just don't find the song I am looking for, and I have to find the lyrics manually. I found it tedious to find the lyrics in Safari, switch back to iTunes, highlight the song I want to add the lyrics to, open the song's info panel, paste in the lyrics, and finally, close the window. So I wrote this simple AppleScript instead: tell application "System Events" set sel to (the clipboard as text) end tell tell application "iTunes" set lyrics of current track to sel end tell I then bound this AppleScript to a keyboard shortcut using iKeys (any macro-capable program should work just as well). It will copy any text currently in the clipboard to the currently playing song's lyrics. ... Source: www.macupdate.com --- 20 days ago

Hello, Just about everyday I open the same 5 documents in textedit. Everyday (or after every reboot) I have to arrange the windows, which is exactly the same way each time, so they're all displayed a certain way. An AppleScript for this would prove invaluable. Anyone know a good way to create one that opens, arranges, and resizes 5 .rtf documents in Text Edit? The recording feature of script editor didn't register for Text Edit recordings. Thanks a ton. I sincerely appreciate your wisdom on this matter! Molto ringraziamento! Sincerely, John ... Source: blogmarks.net --- 15 days ago

Filed under: Features , How-tos , AppleScript Last week, Dave mentioned that you can change the file type used system-wide for screenshots. However, some people are afraid of using Terminal.app to muck around with their Mac. In this week's AppleScript article, I am going to show you how to take screenshots and change their file type using an AppleScript. The AppleScript property N : 0 set N to N + 1 set picPath to ((POSIX path of (path to desktop)) & "Picture_" & N & ".png") as string do shell script "screencapture " & quoted form of picPath Using the AppleScript Open the ScriptEditor (/Applications/AppleScript/ScriptEditor.app). Copy/paste the AppleScript into the script edtitor and click the run button at the top. You will hear the camera shutter sound and a picture will be taken and saved to your desktop. This script comes in handy when you want to take a screenshot in a different format. To do this, just change the ".png" file type to whatever you might want (say, .jpg, .tiff, etc.). When you re-run the script, the new file type will be associated with the capture image. Continue reading to learn how to save this script.
