Only odds and ends, and only in Mac OS X 10.0.4 and lower. If your scripts
involve the Mac OS X Finder, you're likely to have difficulties.
If you scripts involve Scripting Additions, you'll need to deal with the
fact that Mac OS 9 and lower Scripting Additions don't work in Mac OS X
(you can arrange for them to run in Classic). I currently have Mac OS X
versions of
XML Tools.osax (Late Night Software), and
StandardAdditions.osax (Apple...the obvious)
installed in the various Mac OS X Scripting Additions folders, along with
Apple's two application-type presences in the Scripting Additions folder:
ColorSyncScripting
URL Access Scripting
