Marco -

I've never written an OSAX and I don't pretend to know anything about doing
so, but I think you'd be better off asking this over on the
AppleScript-Implementors list. I presume you are acquainted with the tech
note:

http://developer.apple.com/technotes/tn/tn1164.html

It comes with a stub for writing an OSAX. As you can see, it looks like
Carbon entry points all the way. On the other hand, as an AppleScript user,
I'm pleading with you - no, no, not another OSAX! Just make a scriptable
executable (faceless background if need be). And then you could use Cocoa
Scripting and be all Objective-C, all the time... m.
