This is awesome, thanks. Still works on Mountain Lion!
This worked well, but there is a problem with trying to set up LaunchPad in Mountain Lion. You cannot just use "LaunchPad" or any variation thereon.
I found that using the variable
«constant ****lpad»
works to enable launchpad.

Super helpful! Thanks. To clarify a tiny issue I had, on mountain lion, to get application windows, use "activity:application windows,"
very helpful, resolved my problem with game Dota2 =) Thank you!
Mavericks breaks this, and i can't seem to find anything about expose or hot corners in the dictionary. Do you or anyone know how to fix it?
Yeah Mavericks broke the script, can you flux it klynch plz!
An alternative Script that toggles Hot Corners can be found here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/23989931#23989931
If you have set german as your language see my modifications here: https://gist.github.com/hng/7774920
I don't have any OSX devices anymore. Thanks for the link @hng.
Whats "activity" parameter for sleep monitor?
To run, open both scripts with AppleScript Editor, then for each script go to File -> Save As, Select "Application" and click "Run Only". This will produce two applications.
