passing values from one script into a second script ?


  • Subject: passing values from one script into a second script ?
  • From: Bill Christens-Barry <email@hidden>

I'm still trying to resolve this. I need to use one script to run a second, compiled script, with the first script passing a set of values (strings, actually) to the script that it calls. Can anyone provide a simple example of how to do this? If possible, I'd like to avoid having the first script paste the arguments to the clipboard and then having the second script get them from the clipboard. I also like to avoid buffering the arguments in a file.

The reason for doing things this way is that I want to embed the first script in an application (Object-Image) in a situation where it's not appropriate to embed all of the scripting commands.

I can get one script to run the second script, but I don't know how to pass string from the first script into the second. I haven't been able to do this even if the first script is run using Script Editor or as a compiled script (i.e. without any of the embedding issues).

Thanks.
