The Scripting capabilities in Sassafras allow you to extend KeyConfigure with tasks and options specific to your workflow. Anyone who understands JavaScript can write scripts and share them with other Sassafras administrators. This page provides some scripts that are broadly useful to all Sassafras administrators. Documentation for all aspects of scripting is available at these links:
- Manage Scripts Window — describes how to install scripts
- Scripting Tutorial — gives an overview of writing scripts
- Scripting Reference — provides details for script development
The scripts listed below can be added to KeyConfigure to extend functionality. Click on the Install link next to a description to add the script to KeyConfigure. You must have KeyConfigure installed on the computer on which you are viewing this page.
Use these as they are, or as a starting point for writing your own scripts. Writing scripts requires knowledge of the JavaScript language. If you have an idea for a script that might be of general interest to other Sassafras admins, contact Sassafras to see if we can provide assistance.
