Hi, all, I'm about to "open my mouth and remove all doubt", but, if I'm reading Andy's request properly, much of what he wants is already available through the Wombat, isn't it?
I'm making an assumption that the Wombat publishes as many events for e-mail as it does for calendar/scheduling and the address book subsystems, but if it does (and the language you're using supports binding to an ORB), you should have everything you would need to do all of the things that you're suggesting without adding specific scripting support. Or did my reality cheque bounce this morning? <G> Brian ----- Original Message ----- From: "Andy Cedilnik" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Brian" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, May 09, 2002 1:48 PM Subject: Re: [Evolution] Re: [Evolution-hackers] Scripting in evolution > Well, several reasons.
