@Constantin: Yep, I recently blogged about it:

It’s still “beta” for sure, some little bugs here and there, but this should more or less work well on Lion for most tasks.

Hi Mark – to be honest I have very little motivation to work on this anymore because of bigger fish to fry and because I don’t really need it so much for my own needs anymore.

I think for writing to the keychain you should be able to use the standard Apple scripting support. There’s no reason I know of that you can’t use mine for faster access to reading stuff out, and then use Apple’s to update or add items.

Hi — many thanks for this, it is so much better and more reliable than the Apple Keychain Scripting. However, I really need to be able to write to the keychain as well — are you considering adding this functionality?

Cheers!
