I’ve just found this does not work.

In fact, in looking for the option to copy an email address to the clipboard, I just noticed that none of my custom rollover AB plugins are currently working in Yosemite (10.10.3) Contacts. Since Google turns up little, I’m wondering if there is something wrong on my end, because otherwise I’d suspect the OS.

To test, I copied and compiled this exact script, saved it in the required/specified location, then quit and relaunched contacts. Nada.

The only items that appear in my rollovers for phone#s and emails are either built-in or installed by bundles, not scripts using this script suite.

Any obvious tips for changes that would have to be made to existing scripts?

The location has apparently moved. With very little fanfare apparently.
