+1. I for one am extremely grateful to those who contribute scripts and, IMHO, they do so with patience and kindness as my very recent experience is witness, (see Make an Index Document (RTF) for a Selection of Documents). In this particular case a great deal of work and time has been saved and I, unlike Bluefrog, am VERY happy to publicly thank Korm for this. 
I will take up your suggestion and try to learn to write AppleScript myself but my problem is that so often I do not know what I want to achieve until I see someone else ask for it!
