Hello,
Been lurking for awhile. I'm trying to learn Applescript for a
specific use. I want to be able to write scripts to parse text files,
interpret beta code tags, change font/keymapping schemes, etc. Most
of what I'm talking about is a sequence of find/replace criteria.
Many of the text files will be tab delimited.
What resources, online or book, do you recommend to help me become
fluent in these kinds of scripts--working with text files? (I'm
still confused a bit on the way to use Applescript's text delimiters,
etc.)
TIA,
Joe Weaks
