I would like to run a loop until 10 minutes after it starts. getting
the initial date is easy:
But you don't need to. Computers calculate with (milli- or micro-) seconds
So does AppleScript (i jhose german variable names because I am German
and "jetzt" in english "then" wouldn't work as a name:
set jetzt to current date
set dann to jetzt + 10 * minutes
repeat until (current date) >= dann
delay 10 -- do your work here. I chose a delay because I have
nothing to do
end repeat
