Make sure you make a way to quit it, or you'll have to kill it's PID.
NSUIElement is the older, now-deprecated version of LSUIElement. They
both have the same effect, though.
If the application is truly background-only, however, then you
actually want LSBGOnly. LSUIElement is for applications that don't
show up in the dock and don't have a menu bar but *do* have user
interface -- a floating window, for example. The Dock is one example;
Script Runner is another.
I don't have the rest of this thread because I haven't pulled all my
archived mail from my old client, but did take special care to retrieve
Chris Nebel's. Perhaps someone already mentioned this, but after much
hair-tearing, I found that LSBGOnly doesn't work, but NSBGOnly does.
Just for the record.
Cheers,
Mike
