Interesting; hadn't thought of that approach. Been thinking about
moving everything into Xcode (since it already uses flat files), but
can't help feeling it's a bit of overkill for simple stuff, even using
my own applet templates.

How's that working for you? I'm somewhat familiar with Subversion from
using SourceForge, but distributed scm seems to be increasingly
popular these days and the ability to work without being tied to a
central server would be handy (e.g. when out of office). I get the
impression it may also encourage more frequent checkins and make it
easier to create experimental branches.
I was also wondering if custom Git/Mercurial/other-distributed-scm
hooks could be used to compile/decompile scripts on the fly when
diffing/merging - does that sound a realistic/worthwhile option? Has
anyone tried it?
Thanks,
Hamish
