I'm finding that I need to get many of the functions I've used
AppleScript for to now work in a shell script. A lot of the tools and
the way I need to run them have to run in a shell script as I can't
call an application for the functions. Mainly it's during login/out
that this needs to do.
Question is: Does anyone have resources to recommend that would help
in "converting" the syntax from an AS to a shell script?
Things like comparing the contents of two folders and taking action
on the non-matching files in one of those folders. Pretty simple in
AS. I don't know how to do this in Terminal or a shell script. I'd
rather not do perl or some actual language.
For now I'm getting by with using osascript to call my AppleScripts,
which is very functional so far.
Any pointers appreciated.
