[QUOTE="xstep, post: 621643, member: 11647"] Glad to here the link solved your problem. I'm trying to get people to be more proactive on their own. Since I didn't know what your action was before posting, the search was a good suggestion. So many people don't bother as I'm sure you are aware, based on your experience with forums. I've been accused of being too direct at times, so I'm sure I could be more tactful at times. Your constructive domain language lesson for the day; AppleScript is one word and the S is capitalized. As a technical person you understand the value of being this exact, so don't think I'm trying to talk down to you. So if I had said "Please see this thread titled '[URL="http://www.mac-forums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=43352"]Basic Terminal Automation[/URL]' that can be found with the search words 'AppleScript Terminal script' within this forum.", that would have been more to your liking. I actually like that. :) It doesn't assume one didn't do a search, it places key words in the response, and gives a subtle hint to others how to do a search. [/QUOTE]
