All of which is exactly my problem. I want to create tabs in the
specific window that I get when I ask it to create a new document.
The problem is, the return value of "make new document" doesn't seem
to be much help in getting at the window that it just created. (If I
could get "make new window" to work instead, I'd use that.)

Right - *what* do I put in place of that x?
For now I'm exploiting the fact that the new window created by "make
new document" winds up as the front window:
-- begin script
property username : missing value
property pass : missing value
if username is the missing value then
set username to text returned of (display dialog "Enter
del.icio.us username:" default answer "")
end if
if pass is the missing value then
set pass to text returned of (display dialog "Enter password:"
default answer "")
end if
set urlPrefix to "https://"; & username & ":" & pass & "@api.del.icio.us/v1"
set tagsUrl to urlPrefix & "/tags/all"
set postsUrl to urlPrefix & "/posts/all?tag="
set tags to paragraphs of (do shell script "/usr/bin/curl --silent '"
& tagsUrl & "' | sed -ne 's/.*tag=\"\\([^\"]*\\)\".*/\\1/p' | sort
-f")
set theTag to choose from list tags with prompt "Select tag to open"
set urls to paragraphs of (do shell script "/usr/bin/curl --silent '"
& postsUrl & theTag & "' | sed -ne 's/^.*<post
href=\"\\([^\"]*\\)\".*$/\\1/p'")
tell application "Safari"
make new document
tell front window
repeat with i from 1 to count (urls)
set theUrl to item i of urls
if i = 1 then
set URL of tab 1 to theUrl
else
make new tab with properties {URL:theUrl}
end if
end repeat
end tell
end tell
--end script
Incidentally, since Script Editor doesn't seem to do the persistent
properties thing anymore, what's the best way to get those property
values to stick around?
