Code to be evaluated! [005]

[Obi-wan Kenobi]

Hi Scripters!

This script seems to work fine but I'm not truly convinced by its code [ I've written, I agree!  ]

Object:  find all paras with a "word spacing more than 100% desired" and apply them "a word spacing 95% desired"!

var myParas = app.activeDocument.stories.everyItem().paragraphs.everyItem().getElements();  
var mydesiredWordSpacing_0 = 100;  
var mydesiredWordSpacing_1 = 95;  
for (p = 0; p < myParas.length; p++)  
    {  
        var mydesiredWordSpacing = myParas
.desiredWordSpacing;  
        if (mydesiredWordSpacing > mydesiredWordSpacing_0) {  
            mydesiredWordSpacing = mydesiredWordSpacing_1;  
            myParas
.desiredWordSpacing = mydesiredWordSpacing;  
        }  
    }

From what I understood of your code:

Array.prototype.resetSpacing = function() {
  var item;
  while ( item = this.pop() ) item.desiredWordSpacing>100 && item.desiredWordSpacing=95;
}
app.activeDocument.stories.everyItem().paragraphs.everyItem().getElements().resetSpacing();

Wow!  Loic, very nice code! 

After his study [2 hours!], I can even say I understand it!

Thank you very much!
