Possibly. Some of these scripts started out on OS 9 in Quark 4, but were ported to Mac OS 10.2 and InDesign CS and then just updated from there with the odd bug fix, new CS app, etc. They're fairly large (1200-1800 lines usually), so there might some older Finder stuff still creeping around. I'm looking into porting some of this stuff over into RB or using RB as more of a hub for some of the work.

Apple did make a significant update to Applescript with Mac OS 10.5. That *might* have something to do with it. My production group at The Day Job can't run any of the scripts I've written over the years on our new Intels. A lot of the scripts can be run but then just hang. I have yet to see what happens with any of the RB- related stuff. Finding the cause of all this is on the docket for next week, and if I find anything related to RB or that could help, I'll post.

We might just be lucky but we have many, many scripts here and nothing has broken with Intel machines. I re-wrote a couple into RB just to avoid having to use a couple of dependent OSAXen - perhaps there's some PPC OSAX code which is breaking things?

cheers
