Does anyone know how to use the Sound Studio 4 "Stitch" monbot in an Automator workflow? This little app does a great job of combining multiple audio files, and the monbots supposedly support Automator and Applescript, but I cannot for the life of me find any instructions showing how to use a monbot in an Automator workflow.
In short, I would like to use the Stitch monbot in an Automator service so that I can select several audio files and then join them into one by invoking the service from the contextual (right mouse click) menu. Stitch can do that in several GUI steps but I would like to use Automator to simplify the process.

A little more info. I can open Stitch from the command line with the following command:
Stitch.app/Contents/MacOS/Stitch
This gives me the GUI interface. Is there some way to determine whether the application stub takes parameters and, if so, what they are?
The app Resources folder includes an Application.scpt, but it is run-only and apparently cannot be opened. Is there some way to look at the script nonetheless?

Well, I cannot do that, but the AppleScript Editor sees a Dictionary for Stitch. However, I find the Dictionary inscrutable (13 top-level "suites," with a gazillion entries among them). Would the Dictionary have a section identifying available parameters for execution on the command line? It is all Greek to me.
