That is what Okey Dokey is primarily for - dismissing (modal) error messages.
Modal messages are the ones you gotta dismiss before moving on, ie. the ones
that stop a script dead in its tracks. It is not good for dialogs requiring
user interaction, eg "Save" dialogs (MacOSX is coming, MacOSX is coming...).
The only incompatibility I know of is with BBEdit Lite 4.1 (may be fixed, I
don't know), specifically with "Find" dialogs, but you can turn Okey Dokey
off for specific apps. I've used it for years, including on two servers
running 9.04, with no problems.
That being said, there is no substitutue for good programming. For example,
before doing something to a folder, check to see that the folder exists.
