I have been recording custom actions to perform various automations, though I am starting to require greater control which would be better implemented using some form of scripting (if this can indeed be done). I have seen "ExtendScript" has been mentioned in several places, though I cannot find that option in Photoshop.

It is important that I can easily share such scripts with other Photoshop users so that they can also benefit from them. For example, I would like to allow people to download the action scripts from my blog with relative ease.

I am creating my actions using Photoshop CS4 which allows users with newer versions to utilise them. The same would need to be so for my custom scripts
