Another data point. I saved this as an app:
tell application "BBEdit 6.5"
tell application "Finder"
the ticks
end tell
end tell
I used BBEdit because it has a dynamic dictionary, which means, I think,
that it should leap into action if it's so much as queried about its
dictionary. Running the app did not launch BBEdit.
But what happens if the inner app doesn't understand the command, and
scripting additions don't either? Will it be passed on to the outer app?
I removed Jon's Commands, rebooted, and double-clicked on the applet. I got
an error dialog, but no sign of BBEdit running.
That suggests *strongly* to me that AS is not passing anything to the outer
app in any circumstances.
