I get a lot of Google searches which land on various scripts. Unfortunately the landing locations are often blog posts from months ago. Sometimes these are outdated or even non-functioning scripts. (Many were written before Snow Leopard) To try and let people know about the latest versions I’m putting up a Script page which will contain the latest versions of my various scripts. (See the tab near the top of the page)
I’m also using this as an excuse to clean up a lot of scripts. In many cases they use older Python classes that have been depreciated. In some cases they no longer work with Snow Leopard.
The first script I’ve added is my script to look up all addresses in my address book within a specified distance. I’ve modified it so it prompts with a dialog box for the address and only looks up addresses in my group “Clients” rather than all people. (I use this for when someone sends an email to me asking for nearby stores that stock our chocolate) I have this configured as a service using Automator. So it’s easy to access. It generates a nicely formatted list in either TextMate or Automator for pasting into a mail message.
