Description

This sample contains two scripting definition (sdef) files:

- Sketch.sdef: the scripting interface for Sketch (available separately in /Developer/Examples/AppKit). In Tiger, this file may be added to the Sketch application to drive its scriptability, in place of its existing scriptSuite and scriptTerminology files.

- Skeleton.sdef: a starting point for the scripting interface of an application. It contains definitions for the Standard Suite and the Standard Text Suite that you can include in your application's .sdef file (see enclosed ReadMe.txt for special Mac OS X 10.5 recommendations). Functionality for these suites is supplied by Cocoa Scripting.
