From newspapers to NASA, Mac users around the world use AppleScript
to automate their daily computing routines. Famed for its
similarity to English and its ease of integration with other
programs, AppleScript is the perfect programming language for
time-squeezed Mac fans. As beginners quickly realize, however,
AppleScript has one major shortcoming: it comes without a manual.
No more. You don't need a degree in computer science, a fancy
system administrator title, or even a pocket protector and pair of
nerdy glasses to learn the Mac's most popular scripting language;
you just need the proper guide at your side. "AppleScript: The
Missing Manual" is that guide.
Brilliantly compiled by author Adam Goldstein, "AppleScript: The
Missing Manual" is brimming with useful examples. You'll learn how
to clean up your Desktop with a single click, for example, and how
to automatically optimize pictures for a website. Along the way,
you ll learn the overall grammar of AppleScript, so you can write
your own customized scripts when you feel the need.
Naturally, "AppleScript: The Missing Manual" isn't merely for
the uninitiated scripter. While its hands-on approach certainly
keeps novices from feeling intimidated, this comprehensive guide is
also suited for system administrators, web and graphics
professionals, musicians, scientists, mathematicians, engineers,
and others who need to learn the ins and outs of AppleScript for
their daily work.
Thanks to "AppleScript: The Missing Manual," the path from
consumer to seasoned script has never been clearer. Now you, too,
can automate your Macintosh in no time.
