BBAutoComplete includes AppleScripts that let you can invoke it from
inside other programs. To access these scripts, choose Show Scripts
from the BBAutoComplete menu.
These scripts need to be installed in particular locations so that they
show up in the Scripts menus of the aforementioned programs.
- The Affrus scripts go in the Scripts folder next to the Affrus
application. To open this folder, you can choose About The Scripts
Menu from Affrus’s Scripts menu, and then click the Open
Scripts Folder button.
- BBEdit scripts go in the Scripts folder inside
~/Library/Application Support/BBEdit/. You may need to set the
trigger keys after installing the scripts.
- The Mailsmith script goes in the Scripts folder in
~/Library/Application Support/Mailsmith Support/.
- To use the Microsoft Word script, install Fast Scripts Lite. (Or you can purchase
the more fully featured FastScripts to support Daniel Jalkut’s
excellent work.) Put the BBAutoComplete script file in the folder
~/Library/Scripts/Applications/Word/ (creating that folder, if
necessary). Then open FastScripts Lite’s preferences and assign the
script a keyboard shortcut.
- Script Debugger scripts go in the Scripts folder next to the
Script Debugger application.
- To install the Smile scripts, make sure that you have Smile
installed and then run the Installer program in the For Smile
Users folder.
- Tex-Edit Plus scripts go in the Scripts folder next to the
Tex-Edit Plus application.
- TextWrangler scripts go in the folder ~/Library/Application
Support/TextWrangler/Scripts for TextWrangler 2.0 and in
~/Library/Application Support/TextWrangler Support/Scripts for
TextWrangler 1.5.
You may need to create these support folders inside the
~/Library/Application Support/ folder. For more information, see
Chapter 2 of the BBEdit, Mailsmith, or TextWrangler manual.
The Launch and Quit Scripts folder contains optional scripts that
open BBAutoComplete when you open your editor, and quit it when your
editor quits. The Launch BBAutoComplete script goes in BBEdit,
Mailsmith, or TextWrangler’s Startup Items folder, or in Smile’s
~/Library/Application Support/Smile/More stuff/Initialization/
folder (which you may need to create). The Quit BBAutoComplete
script goes in BBEdit, Mailsmith, or TextWrangler’s Shutdown Items
folder. It may be necessary for you to create the Startup Items and
Shutdown Items folders. You might find it inconvenient to use these
scripts if you use more than one of the programs.
