I am writing an AppleScript to be launched periodically by launchd (yes, I'm back to working on my Dead Man Project for those of you who remember) and I find that "display dialog" messages disappear into the ether. I read somewhere that Daemons aren't supposed to communicate with losers, er, users so I assume the same applies to Launch Agents.
I am getting around it now by writing to a file. I don't really see a need for the final product to communicate but I make extensive use of "display dialog" for debugging, tracing, etc. Any ideas how I can accomplish this with a Launch Agent script?
