So, how do I round 14 to 15, or 16 to 20? Does anyone care to share a handler which addresses this?
In general that kind of rounding consists of:
1) divide by 5
2) add 0.5 (if you want to get nearest rather than lower)
3) take the integer part of the result
4) multiply by 5
I doubt that the "natural language" of AppleScript will do that without complaining a few times though.
