Hi Andy,
I loved your OmniFocus Applescripts. I was wondering, how do you learn which commands are available for a given program? For example, how did you know context "Online" of context "Mac" would work? Is there documentation anywhere? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
The best way that I've found is to open an application's AppleScript Dictionary. You can do this by opening AppleScript Editor and selecting File | Open Dictionary, and then selecting the application that you're interested in. This will display a window with all of the available actions that the application provides. Given that, it can still be hard to figure out how to use this stuff, but at least there is a spot with it all in one place.
