Re: tell Grog to glog



This thread didn't catch my interest until just now. The problem with

	tell application "Grog"
		glog("xxx")
	end tell

is that you are telling the application "Grog" to run, which you don't want.
You want to open it without executing the run handler. You want to write this ...


	tell application "Grog"
		launch
		glog("xxx")
	end tell

Or, you may also write ...

	launch application "Grog"
	tell application "Grog"
		glog("xxx")
	end tell

I was trying to find a script where I think I used this once, but no luck. If my memory is correct, the command 'launch application ... ' allows you to use a full path to the application, which is nice if the application you are launching is stored in the calling application's bundle.
