My first Applescript

27 02 2009

The first AppleScript I wrote was a script to open two finder windows at the same time on my Desktop.

I’ve called it Twin Finder and made a nice Icon for it.

I have one Finder window open my Home folder and the other open my Downloads folder.

The reason I am telling you this is that I’m putting the script I wrote here for you to download if you want it.

If you want to modify it in any way feel free, changing the size or position isn’t hard, just open in Script editor and do as you with.
You may want to change the folders that Finder opens….

If you’re not comfortable doing it yourself drop me a line and I will modify it for you and upload it to the site.

I would suggest that once you’ve run it and decide if you want to keep it or not to open finder, go to Your_name/Library/scripts/applications/finder and drag the icon to the top of your finder window, if you hold it there for a moment it will add its self so you can just click it and the script will run opening two Finder windows.

Nice looking site Wayne. I see you are working your way through the Applescript book. I wish I had more time to do some Automator and Applescript stuff.

Must get back to it actually now you mention it.
