Ahem. I use BBEdit 6, and it's scripting is much improved. It's
attachability is *very* impressive, and its recordability is well
implemented. But it's still far from a full object-model implementation.

Of course it's difficult to weigh one feature against another, but IMO, to
suggest that an application that does not support whose clauses for _any_ of
its classes is the second-most-scriptable app in existence is, well, just
not true.

I'd also quibble with the earlier assertion, but at least I'd allow more
room for opinion there.
