Just out of curiousity, why would you want the Scriptable UnText
Editor?  The version I have keeps binary formatting info in the data
fork, which makes it completely useless for using it to edit text
files you want other programs to use.  Maybe there's a later version
that fixes this, maybe not.

Anyway, there are newer text editors that are rumored to be fully
scriptable.  One in particular I seem to recall (but can't remember
the exact name) that was mentioned on MacScrpiting before I dropped
it.  They should be available in Info-Mac.

Not to mention MacPerl on this list, but I assume you have reasons why
you don't want to use it :-)
