Title: Re: Changes to Apple Script in Snow Leopard
Hi Matt
I work in Applescript and have been broaching the subject of ‘upgrading’ to AppleScriptObjC now.
In my experience Apple have ‘updated’ the approach to Applescripting in Snow Leopard, but much of
the syntax has stayed the same. I still have on my desk several older books on AppleScript such as
'Apple Script 1-2-3' and I still refer to them a lot.

My book is kept non-obsolete by an errata page at my Web site. The errata
page is not as long as the book; that's a good sign, I guess. :) m.
Kind Regards
