Greetings to all!

We have drafted the first rough draft of the AppleScript Wiki , a great feature provided by groups.io.

The Wiki doesn't even have an outline yet, but I wanted to invite each and every one of you to join in making this a great and useful wiki.  We all know of the Apple AppleScript documentation, which is good, but sometimes perhaps it is unclear or misleading.  And, like all documentation, even a few errors can creep in here and there.

While we can't control, or even influence the Apple documentation, we can provide our own here, that will hopefully improve on and augment it.

We are just getting started, and are looking for wiki contributors of all sizes and shapes. You don't have to be an "expert", or a "guru" to contribute, but you do need to be correct. So please double-check ✅✅ your posts to this wiki to make sure they are factual, correct, and clear. One of the great features of wikis is that they can be easily edited by multiple authors. So, if you spot a mistake, an error, or you find the text confusing, please jump in and edit the wiki article to make it better. If you are not sure about what is correct, or you would like confirmation first, then just post a topic here (with a hashtag of "#wiki"), and present the issue/question.

We want everyone to know they can rely on the information they find in this wiki! 😀

One technical note: The Wiki has been setup to use the Markdown format for posting. So before you create or edit a Wiki page, you will need to go to [YourProfile] > Account > Preferences > Post Preference and choose Markdown.

If you have any suggestions concerning the wiki, please feel free to post here.

So, please join with us in making this the best AppleScript wiki on the web❗️

Hey Jim,

The Wiki shows broken graphics in Safari.

Chris,

Thanks for notifying me.  I see the same thing in Safari.
I think it is due to my use of graphics from the JXA subgroup.  Jens has just now made me a moderator of the AppleScript subgroup, and I have changed the settings for all of the sections to allow member upload/edits.

So, I will be moving the graphics to the AppleScript subgroup shortly.  That should (I hope) fix the issue.

Best Regards,

Jim Underwood

OK, Chris, all of the links should now be fixed, and the Wiki viewable without logging in. Works for me in Safari and Chrome. Please test and confirm.
