I read it, and it's extremely useful and clear. It makes me wonder why I
haven't been using such techniques since I've been doing a ton of pasting
and consequent debugging recently with a very large set of scripts which
share many routines. I guess it's because I thought this inheritance stuff
was too complicated to get into and didn't apply to the sort of things I've
been doing, but it does. Your explanation makes it very easy to understand.
Keep it up and, yes, you should write a book. Release it in such a way that
it's not too expensive for you since I don't know how large a market there
would ever be for Advanced AppleScript Concepts and Techniques (unless you
could get a major publisher interested, of course.) Thanks for your efforts.
I know it's not always easy to keep plugging way when you don't get much
response. As far as I'm concerned, you're more than welcome to to keep
sending early "drafts" to the list. I'm sure that any ongoing feedback you
get would be useful for all concerned.
