Re: Controlling other applications



Hm, ok. This means, that, if i want to get data from my application, I have to program a widget plug-in which asks my application directly via command line? I cannot get information from an application which is not applescript-enabled and which I don't know any command line parameters of, can I?

You can just use widget.system and applescript...

Hi there,

I read the complete documentation from Apple about Widgets and found, that, if you want to control an Application like iTunes or the Adressbook you will need a Plug-in and I understand how to use the Plug-in from the Widget. But I couldn't find information how to control the Application from the Plug-in. Is it done with Applescript or are there any secret Cocoa Interfaces? How does Apple for example control iTunes with the itunes-widget-plugin or Adressbook with the Adressbook-widget-plugin? Am I blind to some detail?

Thanks for your help
