Oh yeah, I have read that. I was going by the Scripting Additions
Mechanism
document from the SDK which states:

The Standard Additions file in Mac OS 8.5 is a native CFM shared
library with event handlers defined as entry points in the library.
This mechanism is limited and will not be supported in future
versions
of the operating system; when a new mechanism is defined it will be
documented in this SDK.

On the brink of Mac OS[a]X[en] and I'm still not even used to code
fragments!

It's a little frustrating, being used to the comfy resource paradigm,
especially since the two tools I have for maipulating PEF containers

1) MPW - doesn't do seem to be capable of displaying offsets relative
to symbols. Raw unadorned disassembly isn't as much fun as the
alternative.

2) PefViewer - looked promising, does a nice job with anonymous functions
and symbolic display and it's even scriptable with a standard set of
terms. But it doesn't print, save, or use the clipboard so it's
a look but don't touch tool. Hmmm. There doesn't seem to be any
way to get at even a single character of document windows through
AppleScript either.

Hack hack hack...
