Thanks for any hints.
Hi.
If I understand your question, then you can "compile" not-raw-apple-events
using a trick, "loading" the terminology of your app in your script at
debugging-time.
I'm not sure, but I think that Script Debugger can do this via "default
target application".
Also, it does exists anywhere a very old tool, whose name I can't remember,
which is able to load the target app as a scripting component, so you can
compile terms of the "remote" app. If you're so interested, I could find
this in my archives...
Bye!
JJ
