Thanks for those Nigel. It is one of the Universe’s kinder laws that those who poke fun at other’s typographical errors invariably get shown up for exactly the same error. Compilers (and those who write them) should warn and correct, not wag a finger.

On the bright side, it means someone’s been messing about with the AppleScript compiler, which I’d presumed had  been hermetically sealed and buried in a Carbonised tomb adorned with Pascalian runes some 2 decades past.

I wonder if that means we can look forward to some more (ahem…) useful improvements like, oh I dunno, a debugger, breakpoints, variable introspection… (yes, folks, I am aware of the existence of Script Debugger).



Best
