Hard to say, and depends on your scripting needs. I have yet to really need
'my' or 'its', but then the scripts I write are a bit off the norm. I have
yet to ever need to script the 'traditional' apps, like Filemaker/Quark. The
closest I get to that kind of thing are my 'fun' scripts that I do for
E'rage.

On the other hand, I should have my CUPs log print accounting processor
script done by Wednesday...exciting stuff!
