AppleScript Studio is the breakthrough technology from Apple that combines
the simplicity of AppleScript with easy-to-use features of Interface
Builder and Project Builder. Your script-based applications now can
look and act like Aqua applications because that's what they are.
By using AppleScript Studio you don't need to write a line of traditional
code. If you're a developer using Cocoa, or Carbon, you can now add
AppleScript features to your application with AppleScript Studio.
With simple hooks for everything from reading and writing your own
documents, to using Web services, AppleScript Studio can open new
areas of easy-to-implement opportunity.AppleScript Studio is a easy
environment in which to write native Mac OS X applications, because
most of the low-level detailed code is written for you, and it’s
very, very powerful. It brings the ability to write programs in a
familiar language, but it also has an extremely powerful set of tools
for creating a full Aqua graphical user interface.
This training course is designed for fast learning and covers all the
fundamental points of the application, all cds work on a mac or pc and
no application is needed.
