Red Sweater Software has released an update for FastScripts, bringing it to version 1.1.4. FastScripts is a utility designed for running AppleScripts. The update features several bug fixes. According to Red Sweater Software:

Red Sweater Software is happy to announce the immediate availability of FastScripts 1.1.4.

FastScripts is a utility for quickly and elegantly running scripts (AppleScript or shell scripts) from whichever application you happen to be running at the moment. In most respects, it can be considered a replacement for the Apple-provided "Script Menu" menu extra. In addition to the functionality provided by Apple's Script Menu utility, FastScripts offers a number of compelling improvements.

This update is recommended for ALL users of FastScripts as it patches a few troublesome problems that could affect any user, especially those of you with a large number of scripts in your script folders.

The main symptoms this addresses:

"Corrupt" menu item names like "ABOUT_MENU_ITEM"

Scripts don't show up in the menu (usually scripts that are deeper in the script hierarchy)

Probably fixes some of the random bugs that have been reported but are not reproduceable

Fixes support for 10.1 systems

You can find more information about the FastScripts update at the Red Sweater Software Web site. FastScripts is available for US$10.00.
