| In 2.3 the handling of elements in OSA classes was revamped, so that accessing an element would cause an object of the right type (the Python class handling the OSA class for the element) was returned, but this wasn't done for properties. So at the moment it is possible to say "finder.get(finder.window(0).name)", but not "finder.get(finder.desktop.url)". This seriously hampers the usefulness of the OSA stuff in some cases. |

| The docs say that development for the MacPython OSA modules has stopped, and that a replacement is expected for Python 2.5. Can this issue now be closed, or at least have its priority downgraded? |

| The module is stagnant ("Development on this set of modules has stopped"), but the docs (for 2.6!) still claim " and a replacement is expected for Python 2.5". http://www.python.org/doc/2.6/library/macosa.html |

| I've attached a patch to remove "a replacement is expected for Python 2.5". |

| All that is needed is the doc patch to be applied and the issue closed. Or have I missed something? |

| Suggest a different wording to reflect that the 3rd-party appscript package has become the de facto standard for AppleScript support, so something like: -stopped, and a replacement is expected for Python 2.5. +stopped. For more up-to-date implementation of AppleScript support for Python, see the third-party py-appscript project: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/appscript/ |

| I've applied the documentation patch that Ned suggests in r I'm furthermore closing this issue as "Won't Fix" because the OSA bindings are no longer developed and we'll therefore not implement the new feature that Jack mentions. |
