Chapter 1. Writing Your First AppleScript Program

There's no point in wasting time. You are reading this book because you want to learn how to write programs in AppleScript. So instead of wading through theory and terminology, I want you to begin by typing an AppleScript program, running it, and looking at the results. I introduce terminology as it is necessary along the way. If you begin this way, you'll have more fun and you won't get overwhelmed.
