AppleScript

AppleScript


  • AppleScript is a scripting language that was developed by Apple Inc. It was designed to allow users of the Apple operating system to make work easier (such as automating repetitive operations).

  • AppleScript uses coding syntax that is mostly comprised of regular words, which makes it easier for a non-programmer to read. A script statement could be as straightforward as the example shown below.

    display dialog "Hello from Computer Hope!"

  • To code in AppleScript, users can use the Apple "Script Editor" application. It allows for editing, saving, executing, and compiling of scripts by programmers.
