This is a combination Applescript and Cocoa question. I am creating on
the fly Applescripts from within a Cocoa applications, and sending them
to various programs. Most of the scripts are use to send Instant
Messages to iChat, AIM, etc. The program works fine using normal
scripting commands to send straight text. However, I also want to send
hyperlinked text (ie. text with imbedded URLs). How can you do this
from within an Applescript? Applescript seems to always assume the
string data is straight Text. There seems to be no way to show it a
Rich Text or HTML (the applications can handle this data if you
copy/paste it from clipboard). Has anyone done this or have source
code? It would be nice to able to send this strictly from script (ex
using Script Editor), but if I have to parse an AEObject, I would be
willing to do that. The killer is that I think I created similar code
to do this last year, but lost it in a disk crash <sigh>.
