| Hello
Robert Poland sent me one of the offending script.
Here is a part of this one for two reasons :
(1) I wish to know how it behaves when executed on eastern languages because I'm not sure that the scheme which I use to extract the key string identifying the entries interesting Robert behave well with these languages. I have used a quick and dirty code to trigger the correct row — Mission Control one – because it's row 2 on my French iMac but row 3 on Robert's one.
(2) It would be fine to save it as an application and run it at least under English speaking machines. I'm puzzled because Robert get a behavior different than the one which I get here. Here I'm urged to include the app in the list of applications having permission to apply upon an other one and when I do that, the app is really allowed to apply.
