my script keeps timing out. I need it to be used, and then open another app
and wait till user is finished to select another app to open and so on. i
have a with timeout of 100000 seconds which is over a day. after a minute it
times out, and when i click edit it highlights the line in my on error. I
think it may have to do with the tell me's, but i need the dialogs to be in
the script's app. here it is, shortened:
...yada yada yada
tell application "Finder"
try
with timeout of 100000 seconds
...yada yada yada
repeat
tell me to set theApp to (choose from list theList with
prompt "" default items {theApp} cancel button name "Quit") as text
if theApp is "Ships" then
...yada yada yada
else if theApp is "Other" then
open theplug using alias (mpath & "Apps:Resedit")
end if
end repeat
end timeout
on error theerr number theenum
tell me to display dialog "An error has occurred." buttons {"
Description", "Quit"} default button 2
if the button returned of the result is "Description" then
tell me to display dialog "#" & theenum & return & return &
theerr buttons "Quit" default button 1
end if
end try
end tell
