Howdy, I've uploaded a couple of scripts which some of you might find useful. Open Dictionary From Dock: When launched, does nothing. Subsequent clicks on its Dock icon will open the dictionary of the frontmost app (if scriptable) in a script editor. Scripts are provided for Script Debugger and Script Editor 2 but it should be easy to modify for use with Smile and other scriptable editors. Scripts based in part on code by Daniel Jalkut of Red Sweater Software, maker of the FastScripts menu (www.red-sweater.com). <http://macscripter.net/scriptbuilders/category.php?id=1144> Show Path Codes: This contains 83 of the 4-character codes which can be used with the "path to" command to generate aliases to common Mac OS folders. If a code that you need is missing, it's simple to edit the script and add it to the list. The codes, and a local path showing what they point to, are presented in a "choose from list" dialog. From there, users can choose to dismiss the dialog or place a ready to use "path to XXXX" snippet on the clipboard. The script can easily be modified to insert the selected snippet into a document of a scriptable editor instead of being sent to the clipboard. Run from your favorite script menu or keyboard command for maximum efficiency. <http://macscripter.net/scriptbuilders/category.php?id=1143> All scripts tested with OS X 10.2.6. I don't know when the path codes became available so I can't offer an accurate guess regarding backward compatibility. <shrug> -- Rob Jorgensen Ohio, USA
