There is room for argument about that. BBEdit is recordable.

But I find BBEdit worksheets the way to go for AppleScripting.  Like this:

osascript << ENDSCRIPT
tell application "whatever"
   more AppleScript commands
end tell
ENDSCRIPT

Select the lines and poke enter to get them executed. Or program your right mouse button to look like an enter.

And, by the way, perhaps you'd rather do perl than AppleScript.. It's just as easy without leaving the editor. It's almost - but not close enough to - the MPW of classic Macintosh..
