Subject: Odd & Even Pages
From: Christopher MJ Tangora <email@hidden>
I am moding the OS X applescript to rename files, but I want to add
page numbers to it. Even more specifically I am wanting to add only
even or odd page numbers. From what I have seen I will have to put in
the actual replacements manually, as in 1 = 2, 2 = 4, 3 = 6, etc. for
the evens, and just 1=2, 2=3, 3=5, etc for the odds. What I am hoping
is that someone knows a way to allow the script to only write odd or
even numbers.
I'm not quite sure what is needed, but perhaps these will help out:
repeat with odd_number from 1 to top_number by 2
odd_number --> is odd
end repeat
repeat with even_number from 2 to top_number by 2
even_number --> is even
end repeat
ie:
on AppendEvenNumbersToStrings(list_of_strings)
set list_index to 1
repeat with even_number from 2 to (2 * (length of list_of_strings))
by 2
set new_string to item list_index of list_of_strings
set new_string to new_string & even_number
set item list_index of list_of_strings to new_string
set list_index to list_index + 1
end repeat
end AppendEvenNumbersToStrings
set my_list to {"a", "b", "c", "d"}
AppendEvenNumbersToStrings(my_list)
my_list --> {"a2", "b4", "c6", "d8"}
