FileMaker plugin icon ScriptMaster is a free, general-purpose, modular plugin. It comes out of the box with modules for file manipulation, URL and network utilities, Web Services, shell scripting, event/script triggering, and many others.

ScriptMaster integrates tightly with your FileMaker solution. You can pass in any number of inputs, receive any number of outputs, call FileMaker scripts, and access your FileMaker fields and calculations from any module.

In addition to the many existing modules that come free with ScriptMaster, 360Works is available to create custom modules suited to your specific needs. In addition, if you are familiar with Java, you can create your own expansion modules, although you do not need to know Java in order to use the many free modules that come with ScriptMaster.

There is a support forum dedicated to ScriptMaster at FmForums.com - that is the place to go to post any questions, tips, or new modules that you create with ScriptMaster.

The possibilities are truly limitless with what you can accomplish with this plugin.

Questions and Answers

Will it run on Windows/Mac? What version of FileMaker is required?

Yes, all of our plugins are designed to run on Mac OS X (PowerPC and Intel) as well as on Windows.

We never charge for switching / cross-grading, because the plugin package that we give you includes both Windows and Mac versions, and the same license keys work on both. One less thing to worry about!

Runs in FileMaker as a Universal Binary applicationOur plugins take advantage of the new plugin features of version 7, such as attaching styles to text. In addition, the Mac versions of all of our plugins ship as universal binaries, and will run wonderfully on the new Intel Macs.

Mac OS X 10.4 or
later on PPC
Mac OS X 10.4 or

Windows XP or later
FileMaker 4-6 FileMaker Pro 7 or later required
FileMaker Pro 7 X Won't run in Rosetta X

FileMaker Pro 9 X X X
FileMaker Server Advanced 7 X X X

FileMaker Server Advanced 8.0v4: Unfortunately, a bug in FileMaker Server Advanced 8.0v4 disables all plugins in the Web Publishing Engine on OS X. This affects all plugins, not just ones from 360Works. FileMaker, Inc. is aware of this bug.

Rosetta: Rosetta is not supported. If you are running FileMaker 8 on an Intel Macintosh, we strongly recommend upgrading to FileMaker 8.5 or later; the speed and stability improvements are very significant.

What about Web Publishing and FileMaker Server?

If you purchase the Enterprise License (see below), then you will be able to use the plugin with the FileMaker Web Publishing Engine. This means that when you use our plugins in your FileMaker scripts, they will work the same way with Instant Web Publishing (IWP). It also means that your Custom Web Publishing applications (with XSLT, PHP, or any other web technology) can call FileMaker scripts that use our plugins.

If you're using FileMaker Server 9, our plugins are compatible with the new FileMaker Server 9 scheduled script feature.

What kind of licenses are there?

Most of our plugins are available in 3 licenses: a Demo version which works for 2 hours every time you launch FileMaker, a "WorkGroup License" for 10 or fewer users, and an "Enterprise License" for unlimited users within a single organization.
