{ } (curly braces)
Used to Enclose Property Lists
Examples:
set dog to {name:"Fido", breed:"poodle", color:"black"}
set scores to {} --> an empty property list, may also use "{:}"
note
SenseTalk is very accommodating about the brackets used for collections, allowing any of ( ), [ ], or { } around both lists and property lists. However, it is strongly encouraged to always use { } for property lists, and [ ] for lists.
Used Around Capture Groups in a Pattern (Added in SenseTalk 1.81)
Examples:
set phoneNum to <"(", {prefix:3 digits}, ")", {number:3 digits, "-", 4 digits}>
