Unless, like me, you can't for the moment justify as computer that
will run those things!
The wonderful thing now, of course, is that nearly every application
has a scripting dictionary full of the same old incomprehensible
garbage and no actual scriptability, with the noble exceptions of
BBEdit, Smile etc. It is anarchy on a Microsoftian scale.
Can you get the selected text using Apple events in TextEdit or Mail
yet? Does Preview for Snow Leopard understand Apple events? Can you
script the iMad?!!
