Thank you very much, Ian. Much appreciated. Amazing how much knowledge is available on this list. :)
I mostly use Rev to create OS X 'bridges' between different apps, so GUI scripting comes in handy.
I'll look into Prefab UIBrowser. Hopefully it is something I can distribute with my app.
UIBrowser lets you see the exact path to any UI element in any app and then gives you the AppleScript syntax for performing actions on/ getting info about those elements. It also gives you the syntax for sending keypresses and all sorts of other info. In some cases you can even get values from text fields and sliders for apps without scripting dictionaries.
So it's a tool for helping you write the AppleScripts, without any need for you to then distribute it.
