Entity Dan Doughtie spoke thus:
Using the example from Ethan Wilde¹s book on AppleScript For Applications I
created a cron job that is supposed to run a compiled Applescript that

have you tried CronniX?

Really excellent interface. Set it up like this to run an Applescript:

Cool! I stand (at least partly) corrected. Still... your example concerns
running scripts from a user's crontab, so they're logged in (and own a
WindowServer process). Do these work from the system crontab? when no-one
is logged on?
In Dan's case, though, this should do what needs doing (and I wish I'd
heard of Cronnix a few months ago, before re-inventing that wheel too).
Nice bird.
