There is no documentation whatever on what you should return from an
NSScriptCommand's performDefaultImplementation or an object-first dispatch
method that receives an NSScriptCommand as parameter. The only option is
trial and error. As I've said elsewhere, the fact that you are allowed to
return an NSArray at all is very surprising; I would have expected that if
you wanted to return a list of something you'd have to make a list-type
AEDesc (NSAppleScriptDescriptor), which does indeed work. m.
