Suggestion for Embedded Script Window

Are you open to some suggestions?

It seems that a lot of simple scripting can be done in the Embedded textarea of the Edit window. That's a powerful capability, but it would be a lot easier to use if the window was resizeable and the textarea was scrollable.

Another useful feature for this window would be the ability to test the script without closing the window, and perhaps even check applescript syntax, too. Kinda like you can do in ScriptEditor.

It would also be nice if the last active tab in the Edit window stayed active the next time the Edit window was accessed.

Thanks,

Scot

embedded applescript

I find this is the most useful way of kicking off several actions, and agree with the above request. Also, a question:- is it possible to specify a delay for one or more of the items listed in the embedded script ie

turn on "xyz"
turn on "abc" in 60*minutes
turn on "def" in 120*minutes

Yes, this should work in the current version of Indigo. Although, I don't believe you need the *minutes part -- it defaults to accepting minutes.
