| | AppleInsider - Apple Squashes Bugs in AppleScript 1.6 |
| | According to sources, AppleScript 1.6 aims to tie up any and all loose end in the AppleScript implementation for Classic, before all of the teams efforts are devoted to the new Mac OS X implementation of the technology. | | | An AppleScript Script Editor copy and paste error, which has prevented AppleScript from representing the null character as an empty space between two quotes since early releases of technology, has also been fixed in the update. | | | Most importantly, however, is that the AppleScript team has continued to improve AppleScript's compatibility with Mac OS X. AppleScript 1.6 has been enhanced to handle strings of Unicode text as first-class objects. |

| | But Applescript assumes that if you want to open a text file, even when you are telling Eudora, you want to use SimpleText, which isn't even scriptable. | | | Because they try to make the syntax look natural language, and because of the 'record' command which is the first thing most people try, and because no Applescript documentation comes with your computer, this may pass you by for awhile. | | | This kind of issue is much more prevalent in Applescript, I find, than in programming other languages. |
