[Bibdesk-develop] AppleScripting support changed

[Christiaan H. <chr...@we...>]

I changed the applescript definitions to the recommendations of the  
docs/discussions (using a lot of reading between the lines because  
they are very inconsistent). I think I have it figured out now.

The problem with the console message was that Apple has changed the  
definition for "text" in Tiger: it used to stand for NSTextStorage,  
but they changed it to NSString. NSTextStorage is now called "rich  
text", while NSString used be called either "string" or "Unicode  
text" (take your pick!). To make things even nicer, the  
NSTextSuite.sdef file in the Developer distribution contains a  
mixture of both definitions, so that's inconsistent. And of course  
the docs don't mention all these pitholes.

So it is not clear to me whether AppleScript will still work on  
Panther. Can anyone test this? Including the Scripting Dictionary. If  
the latter doesn't work I think we should remove the resource manager  
phase for the .r file again. AFAICS the .scriptSuite  
and .scriptTerminology files should be OK for Panther.
