Reading the relevant parts of the log would be easiest with the help of the
shell and "tail" or using grep etc.

Martin,
Thanks for posting.
My problem is that once I call:
do shell script "tail -f /var/log/mail.log"
It will display the result only when the process is finished. In this case:
NEVER.
I understand that I could do a workaround like tail -1 /var/log/mail.log and repeat it continuously, check if the last-read line is equal to the present-read line, or even if the line contains relevant information for me. Could also "translate" the log results to a more understandable result in the GUI. But all my attempts looked awfull in the nib.
Please check this article:
http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Reference/Foundation/ObjC_classic/Classes/NSTask.html
I understand that this is the proper solution for my problem. This would create a subprocess with my process and unlock my app. But I am not ready for it.
Please forgive me if I did not understand what your meant on your last post.
Thanks again,
Bernardo

Why don't you just add another nib to your existing AppleScript Studio

I need to be able to add a NSTask class to my project. Unfortunately, I
am not ready for it. Don't know how.
If a generous soul could help me with an example AppleScript Studio
project, I could use. I would be extremely gratefull.
If you've got the Developer or Xcode Tools then you'll probably find what
you're looking for with the ManPage.nib of the Command Finder example:
<file:///Developer/Examples/AppleScript Studio/Command Finder/Command
Finder.pbproj>
Reading the relevant parts of the log would be easiest with the help of the
shell and "tail" or using grep etc.
