is there a way in os x to assign a keyboard shortcut to a script?
in 9.x, you could name a file to end with \Letter so that when the
script was in an application's scripts folder (such as bbedit) the
script would be available via a keyboard shortcut (command +
letter). in os x you cannot include \ in a file name. is there
another way to do this in x?
i've used the beta of QuicKeys X to assign scripts to
keyboard shortcuts.

i don't know about the technique you were using with the
backslash, but both forward slash and backslash can be used
in Mac OS X filenames. in the shell, and to applications in
the BSD layer, however, the forward slash will appear to be
a colon. in the shell, the backslash is an escape for
special characters, but you can specify it by using \\ or
by enclosing the whole filename in single quotes.
