[QUOTE="Slydude, post: 1633861, member: 131855"] I am sure the first thing can be done. I did something similar a few years ago. It brought Safari to the front and loaded a series of web pages upon launch. It could easily have been modified to include bringing Safari to the front when it isn't active. The second is probably possible but i've never tried it. The third goal is probably possible but might be better accomplished with a third party utility. This now might do the job [url=http://www.ergonis.com/products/tips/spell-checker.php]Spell checker for Mac OS X - correct spelling errors as you type[/url]. Here are some of the things I've done tin the past few years using Automator and AppleScript: 1. E-mail birthday greetings to contacts (not functional at the moment but could be fixed if I had time). 2. Make iTunes skip forward or backward in 30 or 60 second increments. 3. Make iTunes speak the name of the currently playing track. 4. Play next / previous song. [/QUOTE]
