This script can be simplified a bit, in particular in the loop, which will speed it up Firstly you don't need to treat 3D and 2D layers differently—2D layers have a Z coordinate, it's just always set to 0. So you can use the 3D code for both. you don't need to calculate the average with each layer...

Thanks for the tutorial, but one thing struck me: you can just apply one slider to a null, and then link the wiggle expression to it, rather than having separate sliders on lots of layers. So your expression would look like: freq=thisComp.layer("Null 1").effect("Slider Control")(...

You can make it use multiple processors with an -mp switch in the command line. I have a similar applescript, it's a bit more interactive, at the expense of being more complicated. Mine will either take a dropped file or if you run it will ask for a file. I also made it shut the computer down after ...

Fantastic script. For any DLFers or other antipodeans here's an Australian wordlist. You can use the build dictionary script that comes along with the spell checker to make an Australian dictionary. Go sick mate!
