These scripts are all in Compiled Script format, you need to build your own Applet using Script Editor. This is to make sure you look through the scripts first before running anything. Prudence is the key word, yes?
Warning: most of these done by me in a hurry, so very rough and unpolished:)
Note for OS 9 and OS X columns below: NT means not tested yet. If you test it and it works, let me know!
