there are a host of AppleScript features which you don't have
direct access to
via NSAppleScript
Really? Since NSAppleScript simply compiles (if necessary) and
executes the
very same AppleScript code you might run in (say) the Script
Editor, and
since AppleScript is a way of constructing and sending Apple
events, I'm
hard pressed to imagine to what you might be referring. Well, I can
think of
some things you *might* be referring to, but they have nothing to
do with
the problem you're describing. Still, I'd sure be interested in an
example
of what you mean. m.
Well, for instance, AESendMessage has an "AESendMode" parameter that
looks useful on the surface—from reading the docs, it looks like I
can ask AppleEvents to queue up any replies instead of blocking until
the reply comes in. I don't know how one would do this with an
NSAppleScript.
Again, I'm no expert here, so I could be barking up the wrong tree,
but it certainly looks like AExxx APIs offer more flexibility than
NSAppleScript.
