No. This is not a plea for a microsoft style AS help system. Just a bit of
new year frivolity.
Having come to the conclusion that AppleScript is a bit like magic - an
arcane system of ritualised incantations that have great power to be used
for good or ill - I could not help wondering how the regular contributors to
this list would shape up alongside the staff and pupils of Harry Potter's
Hogwarts.
So, with apologies to those who are not au fait with the Potter books &
movies, those who feel that airing this conceit is a monstrous waste of
bandwith, and those who are mortally offended by my designations, here is a
partial listing for the Hogwarts school of applescripting
Dumbledore: Nigel Garvey
McGonagall: Paul Berkowitz (with a wig, obviously)
Snape: John Delacour
Hagrid: Arthur J Knapp (wig not required)
Mad-Eye Moody: has
Harry Potter: ?
Hermione Grainger: Michele Steiner
Ginny Weasly: Gnarlodious
Ron Weasly: Er, that's about where I come in
And Mr Weasly, labouring away for the good of all at the Misistry of Magic
is, of course, none other than the esteemed Mr Bill Cheeseman
NB - I've left out the Apple insiders on the list, as they are more like the
elemental beings or Titans that bring the possibility of magic into the
world (otherwise Sal Soghoian would have been a shoo-in for Hagrid).
:D
Mr Tea
