but how, when a script is running under osascript, can I write to

osascript.... I know that the return value of the on run handler is
automatically echoed, but I'm looking for a way to report progress
along the way, not just output a big string all at the end . .
My new favorite toy is growlnotify, part of the Growl notification
package. <http://www.growl.info>
my growl("test message")
on growl(message)
do shell script "growlnotify -m '" & message & "'"
end growl
Pops up a bezel or a bubble or something else, depending on your
system preferences. Options to title the message, use a custom icon,
make the message persistent, or what have you. Really, it's very nifty.
Best,
Jeff
