I'd just like to comment that it might be more appropriate for Apple
to change the name of this list to something like "Macintosh
Scripting" since we now have so many more possibilities.
The Macintosh Scripting Systems list
<mailto:email@hidden?subject=help>
<mailto:email@hidden?body=sub MACSCRPT>
predates this list by several years and used to be THE place to
discuss all things OSA. There is no need for another list and I'd
suggest that people with less verbose or more wide-ranging scripting
tastes sign on and help make that list as good and as busy as it used
to be. Since it's a properly administered LISTSERV list, you get the
free extras of a Reply-To header and software that actually allows you
to post scripts including "funny characters" without needing to mess
around.
I'm on that list. Hasn't had a good joke for months. OSA doesn't
include shell scripts, Perl, etc.
The only reason I stay on the AU list is the presence and excellent
contributions from the Apple people, which did not exist before.
According to this reasoning, there's no need for you to reply to any
posts other than those coming from Apple engineers...
