Automator: More Than Meets the Eye
Mike Reilly's recent conversation with Sal Soghoian, product manager for automated technologies at Apple, really is an eye-opener if, like me, you've underestimated Apple's Automator Technology. Automator is a technology for building workflows out of actions by visually wiring together a sequence of those actions. As such, it's an end-user app, a visual programming tool for novices. But one of the common misconceptions about Automator, even among developers, is that actions are just wrappers for Applescript. Not so. As it turns out, you can build Automator actions from just about any language, which gives them enormous flexibility and untility for developers.
