Hi Rick,

many thanks that help, to use "document". However, what I try to achieve is to have a user script that:

- strips all trailing blanks and tabs from a file
- saves the file

I tried:

- Input: "Entire Document"
- Directory: "Home Directory"
- Script:

#!/bin/sh
#
# Removes trailing blanks (spaces and tabs) from the file + save.
#

perl -pe 's/[\t ]+$//g' <&0

osascript << ENDOFSCRIPT
tell application "Xcode"
   save the front document
end tell
ENDOFSCRIPT

but this does not work as the save is of the document before the perl modified text is pasted in. How can I make such a two step script?

Cheers, Fons.

Hi,

something very trivial. I want to save the Xcode front window via osascript:

tell application "Xcode"
  save front window
  close front window
end tell

only closes but does not save the window. What script command should I use? write to file? If so how do I get the type?

tell application "Xcode" close front document saving <yes/no/ask> end tell
