Bill, anybody,

How do I use UI scripting to click a button in a save dialog in TextEdit in
Leopard? I had it figured out in Tiger, but the script hangs at that point
in Leopard. What I did in Tiger was to tell TextEdit to save, then in that
same tell statement tell System Events to tell TextEdit to press command-d
to go to the desktop in the save dialog and click the save button. Do the
Applescript release notes for Leopard explain it? You probably don't event
need to look at the script to straighten me out, but you can view the script
yourself (find "save document 1" on the page), if you do:

(I find I can do a lot with Applescript even with wide gaps in my
understanding of it.)
