Applescript for the Internet
Ethan Wilde - Collection Visual Quickstart Guide
Résumé
version of AppleScript, the subject of this
book, shows a 10x speed improvement over
the AppleScript of the last decade, and also
incorporates a host of new features. In
addition, AppleScript is to be a part of
Rhapsody, and a strong power-user and
developers tool for many years to come.
Why all this attention' AppleScript has
undergone a rebirth in the last two years. For
instance Applescript is the now second most
popular language for CGI development after
PERL.
This is pretty surprising. Why is it so?
Previously a language for automating your
Macintosh, AppleScript is now a language for
automating the Internet. Using simple third
party plug-ins, including Marionet from IncWell
DMG Ltd., you can use AppleScript to reach
out onto the Internet. For example,
AppleScript is used by many graphics
professionals to automate their repetitive
tasks with Photoshop and QuarkXPress. Using
scripts from this book, you can now automate
those tasks on the graphics files on your web
site. Or use AppleScript to search newsgroups
for you, or even write your own simple custom
web browser in AppleScript.
In addition, with other easy add-ons you can
use AppleScript to control servers and
computers from other vendors, including
Windows and Windows NT.
