Here's a neat demonstration of the danger of using the id alone
rather than a fully qualified reference:
tell app "Eudora"
open the first message in mailbox 14
set _id to the id of the front message
set _subject to the subject of the front message
close the front window
set _subject2 to the subject of message id _id
set _subject3 to the subject of message id _id of mailbox 14
{_subject, _subject2, _subject3}
end
That certainly convinces me. Is it difficult for developers to assign
usable IDs to entities in their scriptable apps?
For a long time I have nagged for a mailbox property of the message
class in Eudora. I'm sure it's on SD's list of priorities -- at
about item No. 18,367.
Nag him to assign unique IDs that we can actually use while y're at it. ;-)
There is also no way, using Eudora's dictionary, to create a new
mailbox and have it appear immediately in the menu. There is a way
to do it, but my challenge of two months standing remains unanswered
and I'm not talking.
Don't make me come over there and...
Later I will show a relatively certain way to get a fully qualified
reference to the message in the front window. This is not quite so
mercurial as the other problem.
Cool.
