MacWorld UK: AppleScript for OS X is 'best ever'



"It's a powerful tool: an easy-to-use, English-like language that can be used to automate common actions performed on the Mac. But it also offers a great deal more. Macworld UK spoke with Apple's AppleScript Product Manager Sal Soghoian."

Youpi Key 1.6



Youpi Key is an automation utility which can run an action based on:

-- a keyboard equivalent
-- and/or an item of a menu
-- and/or a programmed date (each day, each week, each month at a specified time)

From the rumor mill - Youpi Key 1.7, which is still in beta, will include AppleScript support. This will mean that one can both embed an AppleScript as an action and also trigger an action via an AppleScript.
