Alex,
Its all Greek to me indeed. But interesting. I am, and will for some
time still, running Mavericks.
From The Believer. . .
. . . what if it were true?

Hi all,
Most of you know about what I (rather un-creatively) call Talking Dashboard, a
set of Applescript files that give you access to information. There's a
time/date one, one for battery, one for current wifi status, and more. Most of
you also know I've wanted to add a script for upcoming reminders and calendar
events, but I could never get it working right, and I didn't like that it would
always force Reminders or Calendar to launch.
Well, the good news is that I can overcome both problems (most likely, but no
promises) by accessing the EKEventStore through Cocoa. If that's Greek to you,
the bottom line is that I can probably do this, but it requires OS10.9 or
later, maybe even 10.10 or later. I'm on 10.10, but I'm wondering how many
people this would affect? Existing scripts would continue to work, but if I
find a faster/easier way to do what they currently do that also uses Cocoa,
I'll do it. Plus, I could probably revamp and expand the template system, since
I would no longer need to use my own hacked-together solution but could instead
use a real, Cocoa-based one. I'd probably archive what I have and put the
existing scripts in a subfolder, so those who can't run the new ones don't need
to, but I would no longer support them.
So, basically, if you use Talking Dashboard, on which version(s) of OS X do you
use it?
