To make it easier for you to start using and writing scripts, we deliver a slew of scripts with DEVONagent Pro that you can access in the Scripts menu (which shows a stylized S symbol as its title instead of the word Scripts). These scripts interact directly with selected items, the currently displayed webpage or a window. All scripts delivered with DEVONagent Pro are useable in your daily work and don't require modification.

In addition to the scripts that you use inside DEVONagent Pro, OS X features a global script menu that allows you to access certain scripts from any application on your Mac, e.g., your web browser or Apple Mail. When activated, the global script icon appears at the right side of the menu bar (like other menu extras such as the AirPort signal strength or the Spotlight icon). It appears with a black stylized S icon.

DEVONagent Pro does not come with scripts for other applications, but you can use the global script menu for creating application-specific scripts.

To activate the global script menu, do the following:

To install your own scripts, copy them into the folder '~/Library/Scripts'. You can use subfolders to structure them in any way you like.

DEVONagent Pro includes a large dictionary with commands, objects, and methods you can use for writing scripts that interact or extend DEVONagent Pro. To view the dictionary, open the Script Editor application (by default located in '/Applications/AppleScript'), select File > Open Dictionary and choose DEVONagent Pro in the window.

You can also add DEVONagent Pro to your Script Editor library. Select Window > Library, click the + button and choose DEVONagent Pro. This way you keep DEVONagent Pro's dictionary at hand.
