Hello David,

I’ve tried to instantiate the above by saving this short bash script:

        #!/bin/bash

        # Let's build a script on the fly (kind of).
        scpt='
        tell application "TextEdit"
                path of documents
        end tell
        '

        # Let's execute it.
        /usr/bin/osascript - <<<"$scpt"

as "david.sh" on my desktop, and by running it from Terminal:

        $ Desktop/david.sh

Does this correctly reflect the basics of your workflow?

Axel
