What's the AppleScript Language Guide?
-------------------------------------------------------------
The AppleScript Language Guide originally shipped with the 
AppleScript Development Kit from APDA and the AppleScript 1.1 
Scripting Kit. Addison-Wesley also sells the Language Guide 
separately (ISBN 0-201-40735-3) [Chris Espinosa (
c...@apple.com
) 
supplied this information].
Addison-Wesley has also made the AppleScript Scripting Additions 
Guide (ISBN O-201-40736-1) and AppleScript Finder Guide 
(ISBN 0-201-40910-0) available separately. The Scripting Additions 
Guide costs $18.95 and the Finder Guide costs $19.95.

[In realta` Macintosh Magazine aveva pubblicato sul cd #81 (Marzo 97)
sia the AppleScript Language Guide sia AppleScript Finder Guide; quindi
questi files pdf devono essere sotterrati da qualche parte nel sito
Apple]

guide explains in detail all of the commands and usage of the 
AppleScript language. It covers such topics as error-checking,
agent creation, and common scripting mistakes. The 554-page book 
includes a disk with sample scripts, AppleScript, and TableServer.

programming utilities and demos--including CodeWarrior. Publisher:

Derrick Schneider, Tao of AppleScript, 2nd ed (ISBN 1-56830-115-4). 
This 387-page guide introduces you to the process of creating scripts 
with line-by-line instructions for each example. Ideal for getting 
started with AppleScript, it includes a complete glossary to the 
AppleScript language and 2 disks with AppleScript, scripting additions,
and scriptable applications. It has a chapter that deals with the 
Scriptable Finder (but the Scriptable Finder is not included on 
the disk) and a chapter devoted to sample scripts. Publisher:

Brad Walrod, QuarkXPress Unleashed (ISBN 0-67979-164-7). This book 
includes a good chapter on scripting QuarkXPress. The step-by-step 
example is in UserTalk, but the commentary is useful for an 
AppleScript writer. Publisher: Random House. Price: $40.00.
