Change Startup Disk 1.6.1

Change Startup Disk is an AppleScript script that allows the user to bypass the OS X System Preferences to change the startup disk. Release notes: Added German versions of all scripts, courtesty of Alfonso "Hcktik" Tavernier. CSD-Original script should better handle hard drives that have been renamed. Error-check routines for both scripts to handle a multiple of issues. Dialog box at end of both scripts will give up after 6 seconds and restart the computer into OS 9. Hopefully the Deluxe version feels more streamlined.

Stone Design Blog: Add Bates Stamping using Create and AppleScript

Andrew Stone: "A client wondered if StampInStone did "Bates Stamping" - ie each page would get a number like: 100001, 100002, 100003, etc. The solution is simple - just use Create and it's built in AppleScript abilities!" ...

Trash It! 3.0.1

This AppleScript force-empties the Trash and allows users to drop files/folders for immediate disposal. Release notes: Now allows users to run Trash It! as if there was trash even though there might not be. This alleviates the problem where Trash It! may miscalculate the contents of the trash or links to the trash that have become disassociated from the system.

Mac OS X Hints: An AppleScript to email Safari URLs via PowerMail

pdxguy: "In the same spirit as the recent An AppleScript to email Safari URLs with titles via Mail hint, I offer a similiar one but for PowerMail instead. It uses the wonderful Extra Suites background scripting application, from KANZU Utilites to position the focus of the newly-created email draft at the recipient email address field ready for addressing." ... [AppleScript Info note: Kanzu's Extra Suites rocks!]
