Now, I'm not exactly sure what an AEKeyword is, or what I need to use
for it in this situation. I've opened BBEdit's scripting dictionary in
Script Debugger, viewing it as "AppleEvents", and I see that the
"default file name" property corresponds to the code "HDfn", and the
"root directory" property corresponds to "HRdr". I'm not sure if that's
relevant here or not.
Could someone enlighten me as to how to construct appropriate
AEKeywords?
An AEKeyword is simply a four character code, so you can just do:
fileNameDescriptor = [prefsDescriptor descriptorForKeyword:'HDfn'];
rootDirDescriptor = [prefsDescriptor descriptorForKeyword:'HRdr'];
You might want to define constants for the codes to make it a little
more readable.
