AppleScript

AppleScript is a way for people to write commands and actions on their Apple Macintosh platform. It is a simple language, like English, and is made by Apple Inc. since the year 1993.  The AppleScript program came from the HyperCard program.

 GUI Scripting Gives AppleScript scripts the ability to control otherwise non-scriptable applications. AppleScript scripts can select menu items, click buttons, enter text into text fields, and generally control the interfaces of most Mac OS X 10.x applications.
