Reference Library: AppleScript
Carbon is a set of C APIs that provide access to Mac OS X features, including protected memory, preemptive multitasking, and dynamic resource allocation, as well as the Aqua interface. Carbon supports the creation of scriptable applications (applications that can be controlled by AppleScript scripts) or applications that control other scriptable applications.
