BTW Has anyone actually tried my script?
I'd like to know if it works for others so I can put it online with the 
others.

Not so much issues, but in 1.34 TeXShop would run all scripts through 
an external 'script runner' program (which is necessary if you want to 
call latex/bibtex/etc on the tex document), but this meant if there 
were errors/dialogs, etc., they'd pop up in the hidden application 
(unless you told them not to, of course).

Since this is unnecessary if you're only running scripts that edit the 
text of the document (like mine), this new functionality to run this 
scripts directly with TeXShop was added.

Or something like that.
