Sure! Basically you just open the message you want it to point to, then run
the script. It will remember which message you had open, and then any time
you call the script in the future, it'll open that message.
I've had trouble with it not remembering the property correctly in recent
versions of the OS -- maybe one of the script-masters can offer a fix.
If anyone wants to use this, but doesn't know how to install it, just ask.
