A lot of scripts that didn't work in OS 10.0.4 will work again in OS 10.1. I
suspect that most simple scripts reference the Finder, in particular
'process' (a running application). That will work again in 10.1. But if you
needed to install a scripting addition (such as Akua Sweets or Jon's
Commands) they still won't work in 10.1.
