Good morning to you all.
The last month or so has seen, to me at least, a great increase in requests for assistance in writing Apple Scripts, Automator "scripts" and even Terminal-based stuff like Bash Scripts.
You will gather from that last sentence that most of this is a complete mystery to me; but clearly not to some of our members. And some very clever and sophisticated answers & advice have been given.
It is for the Admins and Mods to decide these things, of course, but I wonder if this area needs its own dedicated Forum (or sub-forum, not sure of the correct terminology)?
Just my observations & thoughts.

EDIT: I am aware there is a digital and web hosting sub-forum that includes scripts; but I'm talking about much broader issues relating to day-to-day running on the Mac.
