Since finishing iRoster 1.0b3 yesterday I have started work on adding a very cool new feature for 1.0b4.
This new feature will allow you to attach AppleScripts to Rendezvous services and have the scripts execute upon certain events such as when services go online or offline and when the user selects a service in the menu.
With previous versions of iRoster I had to write Objective C code for every service for which I wished to handle selection. With 1.0b4 I’ll be giving the user the ability to decide how to handle selection throught the user of AppleScripts. I’ve already created a script that takes the information from a service and generates a URL and then launchs it.
This will allow you to add lots of cool user defined behavior to iRoster. Perhaps you could use iRoster to browse for people playing games of iConquer on your LAN. You could write and attach an AppleScript to iRoster that, upon selection, would automatically launch iConquer and join the game.
