      My Collection of Automation Scripts 


      G'Day! Do you want to put in little enhancements in your system without having to learn to code first? Sometimes it is possible to re-use and tweak an existing script to achieve what you need. 

      Here's my collection of automation scripts. I'll refresh this list periodically as I find interesting new scripts to share with you.
