So my questions:
1) From your perspective as scripters at various levels of expertise, is the effort to update scripts as tedious and time consuming as it seems to me?
Mmmm.
Maybe I was lucky but we've got around 20 pretty complex scripts being used. Only one broke and it was a 2 minute job to put it right (I forget the exact details - something unicode related). 2) A subjective question from your current experience about compatibility: In a scale from 1 to 10, where 1 is not compatible at all, and 10 is fully compatible, where do you rate Leopard’s AppleScript in relation to Tiger’s?
In my personal experience it'd have to be a 9.5 (1 script broken out of 20!).
3) Is there a silver lining? In other words, is there a way to recover my scripts without too much re-writing or am I caught in the wheels of progress?
I'm surprised it's so much of an issue for you to be honest. Maybe you've just been unlucky. I guess the only solution is to bite the bullet and get fixing them... or stick with Tiger forever!
Good luck!
