@mpweiher Then perhaps a greater chance of it getting fixed!
@ClarkGoble Have you tried the Super Cache plug-in?
@kevinwalzer My experience has been that customers love AppleScript support in apps.
Incidentally, what’s up with Preview’s AppleScript support. In 10.9 it finally has NSAppleScriptEnabled set, but there’s no dictionary.
@kevinwalzer @ClarkGoble Just certain apps. At the OS level AppleScript is improved.
Glad to see that @ClarkGoble’s post is getting enough attention that his database server can’t keep up.
@concreteniche I never actually scripted iWork since Pages and Numbers didn’t meet my needs in the first place.
@nriley Cool. Much easier than the old way of writing handlers with interleaved parameters.
@danielpunkass Yes, they broke lots of scripts that used to work.
Mail in Mavericks still supports AppleScript, but moving messages via AppleScript sometimes now takes several seconds vs. instantaneous.
@nriley This is only for special AppleScriptObjC scripts, right?
@Catfish_Man @bridgermax And, it seems, no second Dock if it’s on the side.
@bwebster Finder and Activity Monitor windows have glitches, too, though presumably not due to Auto Layout.
@nriley Yes, Daring Fireball looks much worse in Safari on 10.9 than on 10.8.
@landonfuller According to the marketing, Mavericks is all about power users.
Went to System Preferences to check the font settings, and it’s all messed up. pic.twitter.com/3p9OzPANPA
Not sure why, but anti-aliased text (especially in in Mail and FogBugz’s Web site) looks much lighter/fuzzier since updating to Mavericks.
Mavericks is prompting me for every e-mail password that was already in my keychain and adding it to the new Local Items keychain.
@gparker @viticci Indeed, it looks like this was fixed in Mavericks (which I was installing while reading the review).
@viticci Right. The status bar doesn’t update in Reader (Safari 6.0.5).
Was going to try reading Siracusa’s review in Safari reader, but it doesn’t show URLs on mouseover.
@siegel @danielpunkass Haha, perfect timing.
@danielpunkass @anildash Agreed, but the real problem is that the people at the top have never cared much about AppleScript.
@danielpunkass I misunderstood. So you can DM anyone now, even if they don’t follow you? Aside from discretely reporting typos, sounds bad.
@danielpunkass How does that follow as a side effect?
@danielpunkass @anildash From what I’ve heard, Apple doesn’t really dogfood iWork, except for Keynote. So maybe they don’t need alternative.
@anildash @danielpunkass AppleScript has been near death for probably 15 years, but nothing’s come along to replace it…
@mhenders Then you wouldn’t normally see SpamSieve’s colors, right? I guess Mail now shows junk as brown when its own filter is off.
@mhenders Looking into it. This did not happen for me with the betas. May be that the junk status (SpamSieve marks as junk) overrides color.
@drdrang I’m pretty sure there’s another Apple example (where AppleScript was eventually added back), but I can’t recall it right now.
@drdrang Xcode, plus some third-party apps like NetNewsWire.
