Didn’t realize how insane/intriguing Yosemite’s JavaScript automation is. Scripts have access to the ObjC runtime: https://developer.apple.com/library/prerelease/mac/releasenotes/interapplicationcommunication/rn-javascriptforautomation/index.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40014508-CH109-SW17 …
Michael Tsai@danielpunkass Any idea why they didn't do that for regular scripts with AppleScriptObjC?

@mjtsai Nope. It seems like a weird bifurcation. Surprised that they would open it up this much in JS, frankly. - View other replies

@danielpunkass Yeah, I assumed that there was some principled reason for not doing it in AppleScript long ago. Anyway, I like the idea. -
@mjtsai It will certainly open up a lot of new automation possibilities.

@mjtsai@danielpunkass maybe AppleScript doesn’t allow for introducing a completely different API in a separate scope like $.
