// An applescript that resizes the front two windows of the active application side by side, filling the screen.

-- An applescript that resizes the front two windows of the active application side by side, filling the screen.

-- Save this script to ~/Library/Scripts/Applications/Run from QuickSilver Triggers, Don't move these/Front 2 Windows Side by Side - Control + Option + C.scpt
-- I use keyboard shortcut Control + Option + C to run it.  I think of the C as standing for "Compare".
-- You'll need to have "Enable access for assisstive devices" enabled under Universal Access in System Preferences.

--set screen dimension variables
set menubarHeight to 22
set screenWidth to word 3 of (do shell script "defaults read /Library/Preferences/com.apple.windowserver | grep -w Width") as number
set screenHeight to word 3 of (do shell script "defaults read /Library/Preferences/com.apple.windowserver | grep -w Height") as number
--if you plan to use this on just one computer where the screen dimensions won't change, this script will run faster if you just hard code your screen resolution with these two lines:
--set screenWidth to 1280
--set screenHeight to 854
{screenWidth, screenHeight}

tell application "System Events"
	set frontApp to name of first application process whose frontmost is true
end tell

--some apps are wacky and put the windows higher for some reason, adjust for this bug.
if (frontApp is equal to "Finder" or frontApp is equal to "Microsoft Entourage") then
	set menubarHeight to 44
end if
--leave room for the Excel Toolbar
if (frontApp is equal to "Microsoft Excel") then
	set menubarHeight to 55

	tell application frontApp
		set bounds of window 1 to {0, menubarHeight, (screenWidth / 2), screenHeight}
		set bounds of window 2 to {(screenWidth / 2), menubarHeight, screenWidth, screenHeight}

// Ever since I started using OS X as my main OS (back at version 10.1), I kept wishing for a keyboard shortcut for the green button at the top left of each window. I wanted a quick way to maximize a window. Sadly, such a shortcut never came into being. I finally took the time to write an applescript to do the job. You can paste this script into Script Editor and save it in your ~/Library/Scripts/ folder. I saved my script as "Click Green Maximize Button of Frontmost Window.scpt". I then used QuickSilver's Triggers feature to assign the keyboard shortcut Control-Option-Z to run the script. I picked that key combination because it's easy to press. I remember it by thinking of the Z as standing for Zoom. Get QuickSilver here: http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/22549

tell application "System Events"

		tell process FrontApplication
			click button 2 of window 1
			--button 2 is the green "zoom" button for all applications
			--window 1 is always the frontmost window.
		end tell
	else
		tell application "System Preferences"
			activate
			set current pane to pane "com.apple.preference.universalaccess"
			display dialog "UI element scripting is not enabled. Check 'Enable access for assistive devices'"
