Useful snippets of AppleScript code.

	Shells
		Directory Shell	General shell to do recursive folder-processing. Drop any items (files, folders) on a droplet based on this shell, and it will step down through the file tree, calling 'processFolder' once for each folder and 'processFile' once for each file.
		Directory Shell with Progress	Version of DirectoryShell that adds a progress display, using the freeware 'Progress Bar' application.

These AppleScripts are stored as uncompiled text. You will need to compile them using the Script Editor (or a similar AppleScript editor). In some cases you may need to edit the script in order to configure it for your requirements. Certain scripts may also require additional software such as applications or OSAXen. Read the source code for the script to find out what's needed, and where to get it.
