Are you aware the javascript also works on the Mac? I'm currently re- writing some AS into JS for cross platform use. Granted it can't do the multiple application interaction but for basically anything within CS it works great.


If Real could get their foot into Adobe's door and integrate like they
do with MS Office, that would be like...wow...

Couldn't agree more. I'd much rather be writing the cross platform stuff in RB than JS - and as Adobe already supports VB it would appear it might be possible. Pretty much everything I write is publishing based so and the ability to more closely integrate with CS is really 'wow' worthy.

cheers
