That is an excellent site. I wish I'd known about that when I working
more with AppleScript.

The dialect file failed the "turn the key and she goes" test for me; it
is the sort of thing that I've never had call to worry about. Apart from
regenerating the Standard Suites for Python use (which I've only done
once, just to see), I can't imagine where I'd need to be concerned about
it. That said, adding in this detail fills in the last substantive point
for the OSA doc, so thank you very much.
New version is at

of course, still welcome!
