Hi,
I’m having problems with the, do shell script, command.
I want it to have voiceover to say certain text.
Here’s what I have.
do shell script "osascript -e 'tell app \"Finder\" to say \"” & Network Utilities Application Loading & "\"' > /dev/null 2> /dev/null &"

I get, when saving
Syntax Error
Expected end of line, etc. but found unknown token.
Thanks for any help that can be provided.
