Thanks for stepping in, Cal.
We run a bureau in Editorial that runs seven Macs. While each machine is
nominally assigned to an individual, we necessarily swap around multitasking
across machines as the desk runs 18 hours a day. While I am the only person
interested in Applescript here (is there something funny about that?), I
have had some interesting conversations with one of our IT guys (whose name
is Cal) who is also quite interested in Applescript applications for our
Library. Does licensing refer to machines that run the scripts created with
Photoscripter, people double-clicking the resultant scripts, or people who
write the scripts?
Sorry about posting this to the Applescript list-at-large, but I thought
it might be of some interest to others as well.
Thanks for your time here, Cal.
