[OS X TeX] Applescripts fpr switchung between single page and Multipage, helpful for Flashmode

[Claus Gerhardt]

Below are two Applescripts that activate "Single page" resp.   
"MultiPage" mode. They should be saved as TeXShop's Macros and  
triggered by keyboard shortcuts. In the System preferences the option  
"Enable assistive devices" has to be selected.
