My new goal
My newest goal is to learn AppleScript. I have a little manual called AppleScript for Absolute Beginners. I’ve been going through it and learning the basics. Right now I’m starting on defining lists. I see AppleScript as a gateway drug to Python or Perl, and then eventually to C or C++ or even Java, perhaps.
What I’d really like to learn is LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP or Perl). That is a nice skill set that will really help me in my job.
My goal is to write scripts to parse out the data we get from customers at work into an easy to import format. We put their data into our databases, and I want to make it simple and no brainerish to get their information into our system.
