It's pretty easy, yes. I learned everything from simply googling, starting with "basics of AppleScript" and moving on from there. It helps to have a goal in mind, such as making some reminders, or pulling data from certain emails, or mass-renaming things in Finder, that kind of thing. In other words, it's better, I think, to identify a goal and then learn the scripting to accomplish it, instead of learning random parts of scripting with no clear direction. Several people on this list are handy with AppleScript, so if you get stuck, you can ask on here (assuming the moderators approve). On Jul 5, 2014, at 3:53 PM, Jessica D <[email protected]> wrote:
