Thanks for directing me to a handful of resource, Paul. As a matter of fact,
I flipped through the Nutshell book while at the computer store the other
day, and I'm considering buying it online.

I did a search, and apparently, the books listed below are available through
the University library. Are any of these suitable for an introduction to
AppleScript if I'm new to it, but not totally novice when it comes to
scripting (I know how to make use of the application dictionary contents in
my scripts, but still feel a bit rusty on the syntax in general)?

If anybody has experience with these books, I'd be grateful to hear your
comments.
