NSAppleScript can only be used in the main thread because it shares a
AppleScript ComponentInstance, you need to create you own
ComponentInstance and that can not be done with NSAppleScript, you
can with my NDAppleScriptObject, which you can get at http://

Hi,
I just read in the "Multithreading Programing Topics" that
NSAppleScript should only be used from the main thread.
My "application" is running as a plug-in in iTunes and I want to
extend the song information using NSAppleScript.
As the plug-in is not running in the main thread I could never run
my AppleScript from the main thread and as NSAppleScript is slow I
want to create a separate thread for the AppleScript calls.
What kind of problems can I expect from running AppleScript from
another thread (and accessing the same application with it)?
How can I avoid these problems?
