Using NSApplescript while keeping UI responsive

Hi all,

I've been playing with NSApplescript and for the most part it works really
well. The problem is that with scripts that take a while to execute, my
whole UI is essentially frozen. The obvious answer to that would be to do
all the NSApplescript work on another thread, but NSApplescript is not
thread-safe (part of AppKit). Is there any way to solve this dilemma?

Thanks!

Edison Thomaz
