Script Debugger is an integrated development environment focused entirely on AppleScript. This focus allows Script Debugger to deliver a suite of tools that make AppleScript development amazingly productive. Features like the dictionary explorer allow you to look directly into any application’s live scripting interface and step wise debugging with the ability to see the state of all your variables make AppleScript usable in a way you’ve never experienced before. Of course, this is just a taste of the things Script Debugger does.

uccess with AppleScript depends on understanding the applications you want to automate. Script Debugger’s dictionary window is where you discover the information and commands applications offer. But that’s just the launching off point. The Explorer is the place where you can experiment with the application, where you can explore the data that it offers and manipulate the data to see how the application responds.

The power of Explorers doesn’t drop away when you leave the dictionary. As you move to edit your script they follow you and are available as you create and debug your script to show the information you’re operating on.
