<P>MoreOSL is a source code library for implementing AppleScript

support within your application. It has the following key

features.</P>

<UL>

   <LI>C implementation -- Many AppleScript support frameworks (for

   example, PowerPlant, MacApp) are available to C++ applications

   only. MOSL is entirely written in C.</LI>

   <LI>object focused -- Historically, DTS AppleScript support

   samples have concentrated on supporting text scripting. MOSL

   ignores text scripting and concentrates on the scripting of

   discrete objects, such as windows and items within windows.</LI>

   <LI>modern -- MOSL incorporates modern AppleScript techniques,

   such as 'deep' object resolution. It is also fully Carbon

   compatible.</LI>

   <LI>well tested -- MOSL includes a test application, TestMoreOSL,

   that demonstrates its capabilities. It also includes a large suite

   of AppleScript-based tests.</LI>

   <LI>comprehensive -- MOSL allows you to easily implement the bulk

   of the core event suite. MOSL supports all key forms except

   <CODE>formRelativePosition</CODE>. MOSL also supports data

   comparison for most revelant data types.</LI>
