These scripts are for use with UltraFind version 2.2 or greater. You can download UltraFind 2.2 from our website at http://www.ultradesign.com/ultrafind, or from most Umich/Info-Mac archives.
(UltraFind is a powerful file retrieval and information management utility which puts the MacOS file system at your fingertips. It treats your Mac or network as an information-rich file and text searchable database.)
ULTRAFIND APPLESCRIPT EXAMPLES (2nd Edition)
UltraFind is fully scriptable. You can now automate routine file maintenance tasks, and have scriptable applications communicate and exchange file information with UltraFind.
These sample scripts are provided as demonstrations only, you are free to use them and change them as you like.
They demonstrate how you can (for example):
-- Ask UltraFind to get all untitled files on your system or network,
then tell the Finder to trash them. (See Script "UTF Find Untitled")
-- Find multiple copies of applications and check their versions.
(See Script "UTF Get Version")
-- Perform multiple searches and locate specific collections of files all in one action.
(See Script "UTF Get Source")
-- Locate specific files and get information on them into your script.
(See Script "UTF Find Creator & Type")
-- Find all the work you did today. (See Script "UTF by Date")
-- Find files which contain the words "Apple" and "version". (See Script "UTF Find Text")
NB: For this script you will need UltraFind version 2.1.3 or later
