Hm. Most of my "cool" AppleScripts are far too tied to my particular
environment. I'll probably port them anyway just 'cause I like Ruby,
but they wouldn't make good examples... I'll poke around, though.

Hi all,

Looking to include some more sample scripts in the next release of rb-
appscript, and wondering if anyone here can point me to interesting
scripts (specific examples, please) written for AppleScript (or
anything else) that could be ported over to Ruby and freely
redistributed under its MIT license.

Sort of things I'm looking for include: iTunes/iCal/Address Book
housekeeping tools; Quark/InDesign/Photoshop/Illustrator utilities
and basic workflows; funky stuff with cool Cocoa apps like Delicious
Library; anything that stretches and shows off application scripting-
specific features (whose clauses, sending commands to lots of objects
at once, remote scripting, etc). Less keen on examples like Finder
scripts that just replicate functionality that Ruby already has built-
in, though would still consider if cool enough. Nothing huge - max
100-150 lines, say - but definitely meatier than the simple 2-8 line
examples I've currently got. The aim is to impress as well as educate.

Look forward to hearing your recommendations.

Many thanks,

has
