I have a Mac (OS 10.3) which I have set aside just to run scripts. I don't
why but at times several windows are left open without an error message. The
open windows are of different applications.


1. Why does this happen (if it happens all the time then I know there
is a bug in script, this happen occasionally. Once I had 3 text edit, 7
illustrator and 4 Appleworks windows open)
2. How do I check within a script if any windows are open and close
without saving and for Illustrator to close without saving clipboard.




It would not be an easy task as each program has its own syntax to close a document without saving it.


For AppleWorks for instance, it is

tell application "AppleWorks 6"
	set ld to every document
	repeat with d in ld
		close d without saving
	end repeat
end tell

For TextEdit, it would be:

tell application "TextEdit"
	set ld to every document
	repeat with i from (count of ld) to 1 by -1
		close (item i of ld) saving no
	end repeat
end tell

I don't know the Illustrator's dictionary.
