Introduction Welcome to "AppleScript Latest Reference for v2.8" English translation project. This is a kind of "pre-order". This PDF is the first step of this project. There is no contents yet. I'll translate Japanese version into 4 separated books. Now, Japanese version have 1,000 pages. Each books will be separated into about 250 pages of original one. Writing period How long does it take? It is not a predictive phenomenon. I can write 8 small books per month. Large books took less than one month. "AppleScript latest reference" took many years. I tried to write this book in vain 5 times. It took about 5 years. I wrote small theme books and gather them into one book. On the other hand, English translation is a hard work for me. Because English is not my mother tongue. I'm a good Japanese speaker and writer. Writing English is a kind of asceticism. So, I separated a Japanese version book into 4 English translated books. The first book will become a touchstone. How it does it cost? A book takes US$40. This price will be reviewed in each 3 months. Exchange rate will be used at that point. This price does not include fees. Reporting period This is an unfinished work. So, I have a duty for reporting at least once per one month. Refund This system does not have refund method. So, if you don't trust me, you'd better pre-order one by one. Other If you have any question or suggestion with this project, give me email.
