Dear Scripters:
After downloading the new Developer's Tools package from the ADC, I've
had a chance to tinker with AppleScript Studio and have to say it's very
impressive. I've never learned C++ or anything 'heavyweight' in terms of
programming languages, and have felt that although AS is rather robust, it
ultimately wouldn't be able to measure up. But when you are in the 'studio'
you have available to you an incredible array of tools, and truly brings AS
to the level of 'peer language' as has been said recently.
I think that, without question, 'Studio will open the eyes of those who
have shrugged off AS for whatever reason, and/or encourage more Apple
devotees to find out what's under the hood. It's very hard to believe
something as powerful as this is free. Kudos to Apple and the 'studio team,
and most importantly, thanks!
