Hi Omni gang

I am about to set sail learning the basics of Applescript to attempt  
to automate some of the processes in my OG4-reliant business.

Could anyone give me a gentle push-off the pier by describing the  
Applescript required to have a curvy line link a number of highlighted  
objects?  Say I multiple select some objects on screen, I would like  
to have a 'button' in the bottom corner of the page with an Action  
that runs a little Applescript to have a curvy (sine-like?) line link  
the objects - however not link back to the first object.  That will be  
done manually, so I stay alert.

Can anyone help?  Obviously I've done this manually and done a Copy as  
Applescript, pasted that into an Action button, etc.  But obviously  
the absolute references to x&y positions to draw to screen are not  
going to get me anywhere.

Any assistance is of course, greatly appreciated.

Cheers
