WRITING CUSTOM SCRIPTS
Scripts, like actions, allow you to automate common tasks, but
are much more powerful. Instead of recording and playing back
a linear sequence of events, you can build in “if thisthen that”
logic. Scripts can be written in JavaScript (Mac and Windows),
Visual Basic (Windows-only), or AppleScript (Mac-only).
Image Processor, which I discussed
earlier in this chapter, is a JavaScript.
So is Get Photos from Camera, which
I discussed in Chapter 2. Figure 12-61
shows a folder full of scripts that I use
occasionally. Scripts are good, and
many people enjoy writing their own
and sharing them via the Web for
free—or for a nominal charge. I have
friends who do that—but I don’t.
This is what I suggest. If you are like
me, periodically check the Adobe
web site (Figure 12-62) for scripts
that sound interesting (www.adobe.
com/cfusion/exchange/). Follow
the instructions for loading them.
Try them out. See if they work. (I’ve
downloaded a few dogs.) If you want
to write your own, refer to the Adobe
online help. Me, I’m tired of spending
so much time in front of a computer.
I’m done. I’m going out and shooting
some photos!
