please post the script (which I realize is a pain to manually type
into an email message)
Jason - I've found the following a low-effort way to post a copy of a
script (and it prevents any finger trouble/typos!):
(1) Print the script in question, but make a PDF instead of a paper
copy (use the PDF button on the print dialogue).
(2) Open the resulting PDF in Adoobe Reader, choose the text
selection tool, select all the text, and copy it to the clipboard.
(3) Paste the clipboard into a new empty TextWrangler document, then
select it all and copy it again (this removes the font information).
(4) Paste from the clipbaoord into the body of your email message.
If you don't want/need to eliminate the font info (ie you prefer
styled e-mails) you can skip step 3.
I have also found this technique useful for comparing complex scripts
in different tables (when I can't remember what edits have been made
to which!) - I paste the PDFs of each into separate TextWrangler
documents and use TextWrangler's handy "Compare 2 front documents"
facility.

Rowland
