Hi Phil,
Well, what I tell users to do now is:
- Launch Console.app and make sure the left column (called the "Log List") is visible.
- Select "All Messages" under "SYSTEM LOG QUERIES" at the very top of this column.
- In the toolbar's Search field, enter "Some Script Name" and then click the "Reload" button (or press Shift-Command-R).
- The list of messages in the large right side of the window should display the most recent messages from Some Script Name.
- You can select and then copy-and-paste all the relevant messages from Console to an email message and send it to me.
Basically, show the messages logged from a script or applet.
Doug

I'm getting anxious because I frequently have to instruct very non-geeky users how to use the (relatively simpler) current version of Console to send me debugging messages and such from my distributed scripts and applets. But I haven't a clue how to instruct users on the new Console when I can't figure it out myself.
