Use Your iPhone, Android, Or Windows Phone To Lock And Unlock Your Mac Using Bluetooth | Redmond Pie. Nice little hack - only needs a small open source program and two Apple scripts and you can trigger actions when, for example, a smartphone comes close to a computer or moves away from a computer - here using the example of the screen lock.
applescript
Smile and SmileLab Home Page. Hmm, maybe not uninteresting for playing around - data analysis and graphical preparation with AppleScript in a scripting environment. Features look quite interesting (diagrams, XML, TCP, HTTP server and client ...) out.
Creating Apps Using AppleScript Objective-C. Maybe I should just get the book here to satisfy my (rather perverse) curiosity about the AppleScript/Objective-C Bridge.
Mac OS X 10.7 Lion Automation Release Notes. The worst language invention since HyperTalk has received a bunch of extensions in the Lion version, especially the integration of the Objective-C Bridge into the Apple Script Editor is funny - you can directly access Cocoa frameworks in scripts with it. Even though I believe that AppleScript has probably driven more programmers crazy than it has made life easier for users, it is always interesting from a linguistic historical point of view to see what is happening there. Since Snow Leopard with the Objective-C Bridge, it has been on the rise again and even in the current XCode 4.1 you can put applications together completely with the Interface Designer and AppleScript. Unfortunately, the application structure under Cocoa is definitely not suitable for non-programmers, so XCode with AppleScript applications is not really a revival of HyperCard (the only reason why I forgive HyperTalk - it was the language in this pretty brilliant little tool with great reach).

FaceSpan 4.0 Public Beta
Hmm. Does FaceSpan really make sense anymore in times of (free) AppleScript Studio? AppleScript Studio can also create completely AppleScript-based software, and with the help of Interface Builder there's also a very good GUI design tool, and the integration is also very high. And above all, extensions and performance-critical areas can be implemented quite easily in Objective-C. I don't know if FaceSpan really makes sense there anymore.

FaceSpan 4.0
Interesting part - basically something like Visual Basic, just with AppleScript as the language. Sure, you can do some of that with AppleScript Studio, but FaceSpan was quite a manageable software under OS Classic back then, and if they were to transfer that concept to OS X, it could be very interesting. Especially through the support of scripting systems (Apple Events as well as Cocoa Scripting), you can nicely integrate other applications - FaceSpan would thus be ideal for creating graphical automation tools. Basically what TCL/TK is under Unix.
