However when invoked by the CanoScan Toolkit after a scan completes
it seems to only run the "run" handler, instead of passing the files

can request another application to open files with? Any way to handle
in AppleScript?
The open handler works only when files are dropped on the droplet or
when the open handler is explicitly called from within the script.
So, have the run handler call the open handler.
But then where's the list of passed files? Can the run handler accept a
file/aliast list?
FYI, this isn't how things work in my experience. I have built lots of
droplets that work this way - called by other apps which pass lists of
aliases via the open event, not run... I could be wrong, but if one app
wants another to open a list of files, doesn't it always use the open
event (not run)? That's what I've always understood.
