After you install it, the documentation will be in the docs folder.

Arnis asked about dumping a list of properties for an object. In FrameScript it is easy:

Set oDoc = ActiveDoc;
// Write the properties to the Console.
Write Console oDoc.Properties;

With ExtendScript, you can use a function; in this case, I am writing to the JavaScript Console instead of the FrameMaker Console:

var doc = app.ActiveDoc;
writePropsToConsole (doc);

function writePropsToConsole (object) {

  for (var name in object) {
    // Write the properties to the JavaScript Console.
    $.writeln (name + ": " + object[name]);
  }
}

Please let me know if you have suggestions for future webinars. Thanks again for all your support.
