Buon Giorno Listee's,
I have some questions about AppleScript as I wish to learn more about
it and I have some scripts which I need to write, thusly I intend to
do this with AppleScript as I believe this can do what I'm after
however some clarification would be great;
Firstly I need to write a script that will show a folder selection box
(much like the one you create with the "choose folder" command )
except what I need to do is have the chosen folder list saved to a
file (plain text would be great); So the user starts the script, it
lists the folders already in the text file, they can select an entry
and remove it or click "add" and browse to another folder with the
"choose folder" command and add another to the list and save the text
file again?
This seems simple to me, my experience with other high level
programming languages such as Visual Basic tells me this would be a
piece of cake if it were VB (because it has GUI creation built in) and
I have faith in AppleScript it can do the same. I don't want to be
spoon feed, I want to educate my self but as an AppleScript n00b I
need some guidance on how to achieve such a task, my Google and
apple.com searches are coming up a cropper'
Thanks for reading people, it's greatly appreciated. Any input is even
more so appreciated.
Regards,
James ;)
