Hey Bob,

I used to get tired of typing 'AppleScript's text item delimiters', so I had a handler for them:

on tid(TIDS)
set AppleScript's text item delimiters to TIDS
end tid

Eventually I decided that the basic text was easier to read and just created a keyword expansion for them in TypeIt4Me.

BTW: I think anyone who writes code who doesn't use some kind of text-substitution utility is really missing a bet.  (Especially since there's now a free one in the OS, although I prefer TypeIt4Me, or TextExpander.)

Chris
