The fairest test would surely be that which most closely simulates the conditions under which the script will ultimately be run. If the intention is to eventually use it in terminal, via whatever, then testing in that environment would make sense. However, since the original script was explicitly intended to be invoked from a Mail "Run AppleScript" rule, the comparison that I used seems (to me, at any rate) fair enough.

"Run Applescript" is a bit of a misnomer. Although I had not realized it was possible until now, Mail will run any OSA compliant script in this situation. This means that for the OSA languages I support, it will be possible to pass the input arguments to scripts in LuaOSA, PerlOSA, PHPOSA, PythonOSA, RubyOSA, ShOSA, and TclOSA. As to whether or not the individual language can handle them, that's another story. I'm reasonably certain Hamish Sanderson's appscript for Ruby or Python could make a go of it though. As can Tcl. I will have to do some serious thinking about the implementation and it will probably take a while. Then we'll have that little speed test.

I imagine the OP will be on tenterhooks.
