For anyone that would like to get started with AppleScript, this page is a good 
roadmap for learning.

VoiceOver's commands aren't documented anywhere online, but you can use the 
open dictionary command in the script editor to have a look at what script 
commands VoiceOver supports. Also, check out the sample scripts that are 
installed with VoiceOver. They're located in the System folder, but the path is 
super long, and I can't type it hee. If you want to hear the path, turn on 
keyboard help and press option-x to hear VoiceOver read the path to that script.

Hey all,
I'd very much like to dive into the world of Apple Scripting myself actually! 
But can anyone point me to a good guide on how you use Apple Scripts? I have 
access to the Mac Dev Center at developer.apple.com, but so far haven't 
actually found anything that seemed to be a good starting point...
Thanks!
