That's it, basically. Write your script in AppleScript Editor and make sure to save it as an application. You can in fact save it anywhere and run it by double-clicking (in which case you need to start by activating AppleWorks) but if you save it in the folder

Applications/AppleWorks (International English)/AppleWorks Essentials/Scripts

(or whichever version for the folder name) - you can open this folder from the script icon in the menu bar - then it will be available from that menu.

There is a document on using scripts in ...AppleWorks Essentials/Scripts Support

Is AppleScript Editor something I should need to download?

I remember that I once added scripts to iTunes, but unfortunately I have only the vaguest recollection of how I did it.

Oh! I found it! Thank you!
