However, I find that the "do shell script" idea is brilliant, and one that
shows a refreshing acknowledgement from the AppleScript team that no, they
don't think AppleScript is the alpha and omega of programming languages. In
the infinite language war, that's really nice to see. It's made AppleScript
more useful for at least my needs, and I'm very grateful to whomever made
the decision to add it.
Hopefully they will make a decision to also add "call method"
such as in AppleScript Studio. It could probably cure a lot of
the complaints in this thread should they do so.

Naturally, the common people don't want war, but after all, it
is the leaders of a country who determine the policy, and it is
always a simple matter to drag people along whether it is a
democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a
communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always
be brought to the bidding of the leaders. This is easy. All you
have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce
the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to
danger. It works the same in every country. -Hermann Goering
