So, what kind of scripts are we talking about? For Apple script, launch the apple script editor in the utilities folder and select language guide from the help menu. There are shell scripting resources all over the web. Two that I know of are http://www.freeos.com/guides/lsst/ and http://www.happyhacker.org/gtmhh/shellb1.shtml. Also, you can write swift scripts now as Xcode 6 is available to anyone with a free developer account. There are some simple steps to set up the environment if you have more than one version of xcode for that, but in short, you would place the following line at the top of a swift file: #!/usr/bin/xcrun swift. Then make it executable with chmod 755 somefile.swift Hope this helps.

I want to start trying to learn how to create my own scripts but I'm not sure of any useful resources out there. I've got a few script examples but they don't explain what it all means. There are a few specific ones I'd like to create. Thanks for any info y'all. Mike fin -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.
