Notes on Emailer glue for Frontier
Emailer uses the object model, as opposed to specific verbs for every possible function. For information on the object model, see:
http://www.scripting.com/Frontier/snippets/objectModel.html
The dates in Emailer are in LongDateTime format, which Frontier doesn't directly handle.
The functions ldtToDate and dateToLDT are provided to convert to and from these formats.
A number of example scripts have been included, see Emailer.examples. For more complex examples of how to script Emailer from Frontier, take a look at suites.EmailerExtras.
For a description of the commands in the shared menu, choose the "Read Me" command from the "Open" submenu of the shared menu - or peruse the online version of the
docs.
Note: There is no longer a separate download for my EmailerExtras suite. By downloading the Emailer.sit.hqx file, you will get both the Emailer glue and the EmailerExtras suite in one package.
