AppleScript
1.4
AppleScript 1.4, which is available with Mac OS 9.0,
includes the following new features: you can use URLs in Tell
blocks to specify a machine location, allowing delivery of Apple
events to remote applications via TCP/IP; you can target a specific
application in a script with the phrase "using terms from";
the "on error" clause in a Try block is now optional; and the
Script Editor is now a Carbon application. Scripts that use
IP addressing or the "using terms from" construct will not run
on versions of the Mac OS prior to 9.0. AppleScript's new features
are described in Technote
1176: "Mac OS 9" and in the Mac OS 9 Help Center. |

in a script, and automate repetitive tasks. Although this document
