I haven't done much with Automator recently, but what you want to do  
is select the Utilities library, then there are actions like "Run  
Shell Script", "Run Workflow", and "Run AppleScript".  VO-right and  
select "Run Shell Script" under the Actions table after you've  
selected the Utilities library.  Double-click (VO-Shift-Space) to add  
the action to your workflow.  You paste your shell script into the  
area where you hear "edit text" in the "Run Shell Script" action.  You  
can set the shell you're scripting for (if it isn't bash) in a popup  
button.

Similarly, when I run an AppleScript in an automator action I can  
paste it into the "edit text" area.


Cheers,

Esther
