I have a script which in the fullness of time will repeatedly (several hundred times) run a list of commands as an Applescript. It will take a fair bit of time to loop through because each iteration involves speech recognition.
My question is, will there be any meaningful speed advantage to storing the AppleScript in a variable rather than field? This doesn’t mean finishing all 340 iterations faster, because the slowdown is the human thinking about the question and giving a response. I’m thinking about a bit more responsivity from tell application "SpeechRecognitionServer" local tresult, choicesLanguageModel, titem set choicesLanguageModel to {"false", "slightly true", "mainly true", "very true"} set tPrompt to "item 6" set tresult to listen for choicesLanguageModel with prompt tPrompt giving up after 30 say tresult return tresult end tell (I should say that the line "set tPrompt to "item 6”” looks a bit weird because it is incremented under script control, and when that happens the indent is lost.) I know I could test, but if someone just knows….
