maybe there is some problem with quoting characters it is very
difficult to tell because Applescript appears very sensitive to
whitespace never mind control chars. Im going to try writing the
script to a file and then using osascript on the file, that should
at least remove the quoting of shell characters problem. Sound like
a good idea ?
Yes. Whitespace is not normally a problem but writing the script to a
file will enable you to analyze any quoting problems. Another
potential area for errors is dealing with return values if they are
not text, and sometimes re-activation problems for the original sender.
