Script Menu

The script menu contains a list of AppleScript files that can extend the capabilities of LXConsole. AppleScripts are small programs that can automate repetitive tasks and be used to share information between applications. Mac OS X comes with Script Editor which lets you create and compile scripts.

Script files are stored in the "lx" folder inside the Library/Application Support directory for both the system and the user. When LXConsole starts up, these directories (/Library/Application Support/lx/scripts/lxconsole and ~/Library/Application Support/lx/scripts/lxconsole) are scanned for files with the ".scpt" extension. These scripts appear in the script menu and can be executed from within LXConsole. Scripts can also be run from the Script Editor or other applications.
