Applescripting Outliner

Thanks for sharing your script, Michael!

I'll attach a couple that I've built:
- The first one does a Save All without changing which window is in 
front.
- The second one does an export of the outline AND the Notes, directly 
into BBedit (cleaning up the \n's for \r's on the way).  (I sent the 
Omni folks a version that works with TextEdit.)

I've been using OmniOutliner as a LaTeX writing environment.  I use the 
outline for the overall outline, and put the text into the notes.  Then 
export everything to BBEdit, clean it up, then format it in TeXshop (I 
have another script attached to ScriptRunner for going BBEdit to TeXshop 
in one fell swoop).  I really like the structure of having an outliner 
for writing, with the flexibility of letting me define what the levels 
mean (since everything gets output as a text flat file at the end).
