Graff,
Thanks for the reply. It now mysteriously has started working for me, too!
Durn gremlins!
do shell script testScriptApp & " > /dev/null 2>&1 &"
With this statement, the do shell script command returns immediately,
allowing the initiating script to proceed to completion.
I was going to mention something about that, but since I don't
understand the ampersand stuff myself, I figured it best to keep my
mouth shut. ;)
I am not sure why the idle handler of my stay open script app was not
firing earlier.
You could always "kickstart" it, if it won't hurt:
on run
display dialog "Start count down?"
set startTime to current date
idle
end run
-boo
