> Are you using the Script Libraries facility (not Script Debugger libraries or "load script" libraries)? If so, are you using standard AS libraries, ASObjC-based libraries, or both? And are you writing (or at least modifying) them yourself, or getting them elsewhere? And are you using libraries with scripting dictionaries, or using normal AppleScript handler calls?
No, none of them.
> * If you're not using Script Libraries, is there any particular reason?
None of my clients is already on an OS version allowing them.
> * Do you know how to set up Script Libraries and use them in your scripts?
No, since I don't use them.
> * Do you think you would be more likely to use ASObjC if you could include it directly in your scripts (perhaps confined to handlers or sections of code), or would it not make any difference?
Ooh yes, I'd love to do this.
> * If you were to be granted one AppleScript-related wish, what would it be?
Actually, it's two wishes.
1. (most important) More evangelising for AS from Apple -- hardly anybody knows it at all (though all who have heard the word "AppleScript" are convinced it's a horrible mess and next to unusable and, in any case, dying...blah blah).
2. (second most important) A completely different view in the Dictionaries. I always want to know who is contained by whom (if I want to access a feature, to whom do I address the "tell..." phrase?), and maybe I'm a complete idiot, but I rarely can find this in Dictionaries. What I *do* find (and don't need) is what an object *contains*.
