So last Saturday morning (or was it Friday?) I was chatting with my editor at Macmania magazine<\/a> about Panther stuff… we were commenting on the strangely missing “Fax received” notification, when I said I’d seen a suggestion to attach a folder action to the Fax folder; there’s a “new item” script at \/Library\/Scripts\/Folder Action Scripts\/add – new item alert.scpt.<\/p>\n

So he said, why don’t you change that script a little and write a note how to install it? Hmmm… I said that I knew zilch about AppleScript, but would give it a try.<\/p>\n

I thought, perhaps it’ll be too boring to write this up… why not write a little installer in Cocoa… and learn some AppleScript while I’m at it? So four hours later (two were used for drawing the icon, of course!), there was born – ta-dah! – the Fax Alert Installer<\/a>!<\/p>\n
