AppleScript

AppleScript Code Screenshot Generator

Turn AppleScript snippets into images worth sharing, without leaving your Mac.

AppleScript reads like English, which makes it unusually approachable in a screenshot and unusually easy to get subtly wrong.

Codeshot detects AppleScript from the code you paste, so there is no language picker to get wrong. Here is the same snippet in three of the 30 themes it ships with, rendered with the app's own stylesheets.

tell application "Codeshot"
    activate
    set theTheme to "Xcode"
    paste the clipboard
    export with scale 2
end tell

Choosing a theme for AppleScript

Its keywords are ordinary words, so a theme with strong keyword colouring helps far more here than in a language with symbolic syntax.

Getting the size right

Let the image follow your content, or lock it to a ratio — 1:1, 4:3, 3:2, 16:9, 9:16, 2:3, or 3:4 — then export at 1×, 2×, or 3× so it stays sharp on a retina display. Copy it straight to the clipboard with ⌘⇧C, or save with ⌘S.
