AppleScript Solution
Authored by: bluehz on Oct 29, '02 11:03:36PM

I agree - Applescripts are much easier to use. I have used Applescripts for years...but in my opinion there is a noticeable lag in Applescripts in OS X that does not exist with shell scripts - even when the shell scripts use some AppleScript. I personally am migrating away from Applescript - but some things you will never be able to do in shell script with Unix. Its absolutely amazing that we in OS X have this incredible interaction that can take place between shell scripts and AppleScript. The possibilities really are endless.

Use whatever makes you comfortable though - thats what counts.
