Links

Notes possess a property, links, which is a listing of all outbound basic and text links from that note, i.e. any outbound intra-document links (for links out of the TBX see further below). Links are read-only and have three properties:

• the source note
• the destination note
• the path name

This sub-routine can be used for setting a link, optionally of a given link type, to from the current note to a specified note:

	on linkFromNoteToNote(linkTypeName, fromNote, toNote)
		tell application "Tinderbox 10"
			if linkTypeName != "" then
				set strType to linkTypeName
			else
				set strType to "*untitled"
			end if
			set strID to value of (attribute "ID" of toNote)
			evaluate fromNote with "linkTo(" & strID & "," & strType & ")"
		end tell
	end linkFromNoteToNote

Note that the to/from notes are passed as references (likely variables) to Tinderbox AppleScript note objects.

A link object exposes a number of properties.

External Links

Any links terminating outside Tinderbox, e.g. web links, are not accessible to AppleScript via the links property, though it may possible to access them via the contents of the $Text attribute of the note, as a rich-text feature.
