Programming with AppleScript for someone who already can program isn't an easy task.

And it's important to distinguish between the AppleScript language proper and the scripting terminology of various applications you talk to with AppleScript.


I think the hardest part is using the terminology of applications, which are implemented by the applications and vary widely in breadth, depth and consistency, and which are inconsistently documented. i.e., AppleScript can't be held responsible for what every application developer out there does ;-)

I'd like to hear (on the list--please don't send me questions and complaints directly) specific issues that make using AppleScript difficult, especially regarding the language itself. (Please start a new subject if you do post.)
