An account of my first hours learning Applescript ... I found sample scripts to be even more important learning Applescript than learning C, because so much depends on learning how each application implements the commands. It's not enough to learn how Apple's Finder commands work.

MacWorld recently published a great article titled "Using Tiger: Learning AppleScript". The article is actually an excerpt from The Mac OS X Tiger Book written by Andy Ihnatko. The article is worth a look because it's one of the better introductory Applescript tutorials i've come across.
