Hi everyone:
I am attempting to create a LaunchAgent that will copy a file to a specific
location at login and when the file changes. My code is below, however I
just can't find out how to make it copy the file without using AppleScript.
I was thinking a cp command passing it the locations, but I am not sure how
to implement this within the plist file of the LaunchAgent. Right now this
application just opens Safari to demonstrate that it actually works.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN"
"http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd";>
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
<key>Label</key>
<string>Resuscitation</string>
<key>Program</key>
<string>/usr/bin/osascript</string>
<key>ProgramArguments</key>
<array>
<string>osascript</string>
<string>-e</string>
<string>tell application "Safari"</string>
<string>-e</string>
<string>open</string>
<string>-e</string>
<string>end tell</string>
</array>
<key>WatchPaths</key>
<array>
<string>/Users/PATH/TO/FILE</string>
</array>
</dict>
</plist>
Any help would be very appreciated.
