KinderShell.osax, a freeware OS X osax for executing Unix shell
commands, has been uploaded to www.osaxen.com, it is in the Mac OS X
folder.
Since the two other osaxen in that folder also deal wtih executing Unix
commands, why do we need another one? KinderShell does more than merely
execute Unix command, less than 10% of the code deal with that.
KinderShell is mainly concerned with close integration between
AppleScript and Unix commands. Philosophically it is very closed to the
XCMD osax. It allows you to build up AppleScript command from Unix
command. So you can write something like
list files (choose folder) file ordering sorted by time with details
which is AppleScript like and integrated with the standard additons
command choose folder.
Instructions to make your own AppleScript command and utility to
generate the aete are also included with the osax.
