Scripts to manage iPod Mini selections from iTunes
Authored by: designbot on Oct 19, '04 02:55:54PM

It never ceases to amaze me how much trouble people will go to to avoid just using the simple features of iTunes the way they were designed.

"I didn't want to go through the trouble of dragging my songs in and out a playlist. After writing these two AppleScripts and installing them in my Scripts menu, all I have to do is select the songs I want, choose the appropriate script from the menu, wait while it processes the files, set up a smart playlist to recognize the keyword in the comment field, and have my computer constantly search through every one of my music files in the background, transferring my keyworded files into the new, smart playlist I've set up. To remove songs from the playlist, all I have to do is select the songs in my playlist and choose my keyword-removal script from my Scripts menu, so it can search through my comments fields, removing my selected keywords so my smart playlist will automatically remove those files the next time it updates!

It's so easy!"
