I've seen stuff relating to this before, but not involving GUI
scripting, so I'm not sure where to start on this.
The script below runs fine in Script Editor, but breaks when launched
(by keystroke) from the Mail.app script menu. What'd I miss?
Note: I deliberately use that string of set statements because I can't
stand having my code get ridiculously indented with nested tells. As
far as I can see, this is syntactically identical to nested tells --
and like I said, it works in the Script Editor. But I know it's not
conforming to the examples on the Apple site.
Thanks,
Jeff
