SortEvents and ProxyEvents adapted for 5.0b (grouping)

Hi all,

I adapted my older scripts SortEvents and ProxyEvents (thread) to implement 5.0b's grouping feature. The scripts might still have bugs, so for the moment, try them on your own risk (and of course they only run under 5.0b). These are standalone scripts again now, so you only need the 2 .js files, no further libraries, AutoIt.dll, and the like (yes, group support from scripts do make things easier! :-).

As a short summary, SortEvents allows you to quickly cut longer events (like full movies) into smaller clips and sort them into different tracks. Can also be used to remove commercials. ProxyEvents somehow "simulates" nested tracks by putting selected events into a track of its own and represent them as a (empty) proxy event that can then be moved around by itself and anytime be "expanded" again (meaning, replaced again by the contents of its proxy track).

You can download them under SortEvents.js and ProxyEvents.js. When they're tested for some time, I'll also upload them to SunDance.

good luck! dust

PS: Here are the original documentations: SortEvents and ProxyEvents - best is to read the walkthrough there. The info still refer to pre-5.0b-version, so ignore the intiial paragraph of both docs.
