Hi List,
I have saved a script as an application. Is there any way to pass command line
arguments to the script, it this script is executed from the command line.
No can do. The only arguments you can currently pass into a script is a list
of aliases when using your script as a droplet. No command-line options
exist.

I haven't actually cobbled together a test/demonstration of this, but the
peacePipe package I wrote to get from apache to applescript uses a shell
script on one end of the pipe, so someone _could_ set up a shell script to
accept command-line arguments, package them for a CGI-style applescript,
and pass it through peacePipe to get it run. I actually do this with a
number of preset cron scripts, but without arguments.

(if anybody actually undertakes to _do_ this, please email me for a bit of
advice and info recently discovered to be missing from the release
notes.. oops)
