Smile Preferences allow you to edit the AppleScript text formats. This function needs the AppleScript Formatting scripting addition to be installed. Once you have installed this scripting addition (by just dropping it onto the System Folder icon), you can call its commands from any script or applet, with or without Smile.
The AppleScript Formatting scripting addition was written by Marco Piovanelli.
Marco Piovanelli distributes it as part of a package which is not included in the Smile package. The original distribution can be found at the following URL.
AppleScript Formatting is a scripting addition (aka “osax”, short for Open Scripting Architecture eXtension) that allows you to get and set the styles used by AppleScript to format its own source code. These are the same styles that can be changed by using the “AppleScript Formatting...” menu item in the Script Editor.
Full source code and a CodeWarrior project file are included. They’re meant to be used with version 4 of CodeWarrior Pro and version 3.2 or newer of Apple’s Universal Headers.
