AppleScript makes me mental; it tries to hard to be the COBOL of scripting languages. It might be okay for some people, but if I never had to think about it again I'd be a happier person. Not sure what you mean by "programming is not scripting". Scripting is most certainly programming, and whether or not programming-is-not-scripting depends on what you're doing. I've never seen any truly meaningful distinction between the two.
