According to the blurb on the front page of macscripter.net, the OS X 10.2.3 update “includes major update to Script Editor.”
After running the update, my Script Editor hasn’t changed. What version of Script Editor should I have now? Does it need to be in a certain filesystem location when the update is run in order to get updated?
The script editor is still at ver 1.9 as Rob points out, but applescript itself has been bumped to ver 1.9.1 in OSX 10.2.3
You’ll need to get the latest Dev Tools (Dec 11 2002) to get the full functionality of the beta Script Editor ver 2.0 which includes installers for the new script editor and a newer version of System Events. They are both in the Pre-Release Software folder.
If the script contains tell application “System Events”, you probably need the new System Events app. I installed the Dev Tools, the new Script Editor, and System Events all at the same time (from Dev Tools), in addition to OS X 10.2.3, so I didn’t pay attention to what came from where. I was Jonesin’ bad to get it installed and take a peek as quickly as possible. Thank the Mac gods that the installs all went smoothly or my laptop may have gone airborn!
