I think you're looking for Satimage OSAX (http://www.satimage.fr/software/en/downloads/downloads_companion_osaxen.html
)
Abs (-1) -- 1.0
Works for me under 10.5.2 (iMac G5) using Script Editor as well as
Smile. It's definitely a Satimage command because Smile's "Find
Definition" command opens the Satimage dictionary when Abs is
highlighted.

Is this function broken on leopard? It works on Tiger.
What's the replacement? I suppose I can multiply n by -1 if n < 0,
but
that's a drag.
In a related question, is there any comprehensive lookup to
translate named
apple events into the command they relate to?
I found this bug when I was getting a message from a studio project:
"-1.0 doesn't understand the <<event MATHABS>> message."
I suppose I should have known that was "abs" but didn't make the
connection
immediately. I would like a way to lookup "MATHABS".
Thanks.
