Auto-accept iChat screen sharing sessions
Authored by: alshead on Feb 22, '10 09:13:25AM

I've been using an auto-accept script of various sorts over the years. With the new features in Snow Leopard, it's easier than ever to set this up (the hint about selecting the user from your buddy list, then get info/ alerts is HUGE to make this work right for just selected users).

One caveat that I would add- I have modified the script to automatically set the volume to 0. I have logged on to my computer before only to scare the bejeesus out of my wife.

In the line from the auto accept script (in script editor), add to look like this:

on received local screen sharing invitation from theBuddy for theChat
tell application "finder"
set volume 0
end tell
accept theChat
end received local screen sharing invitation

Enjoy!
