Apple

From Apple script, I am showing a dialog with few textboxes and a button. On click of the button, I want to call some "C" executable with arguments as strings in textboxes. How can I do this?

To call command line tools, use the 'do shell script' command. Details are in the Standard Additions dictionary.

It's not clear from your post whether or not you are in an AppleScript Studio project and whether or not you are targeting a tool or a scriptable application.

To target a scriptable application use the form:

tell application "System Events"

activate

set flist to path of every file of desktop folder whose visible is true

choose from list flist

end tell
