Brett,

Sorry, I apparently misunderstood your question or was not clear myself.  I thought you were asking if scripts for the 
newer versions of Audition would were with the old CoolEdit Pro.  I wasn't suggesting that you had to upgrade, and in 
fact, I would not advise getting Audition 2.0.  My point was only that Audition 1.0 and 1.5 were similar enough to 
CoolEdit that newer scripts might work.  I hope that is clearer.
