(1) are you sure that the menu item is correctly spelled ?

You are using three period characters when it may be the ellipsis one.

(2) 'delay 5' seems to be huge
'delay .5' would be sufficient.

(3) last not least, your code is not passing the pathnames to the application so this one will not treat them.
