Important: Read before you use it

Do not open this script in the Script Editor! On my machine, it saved it in UTF-16 with BOM (little endian), which couldn't be recognized by osascript and couldn't be executed from the command line.

On my machine, this script is a UTF-8 text file with rights to execute (via chmod +x)
