Hey Lee,
This stuff is not well documented in the manual (that I can find).
This works and produces a FTP Browser Window. Unfortunately you cannot speak
to the window once it's open.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
tell application "BBEdit"
activate
make new FTP browser window
end tell
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You would expect to be able to do something like this, but you can't.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
set theURL to "ftp://yourdomain.com";
set userName to "yourUserName"
set thePassword to "yourPassword"
tell application "BBEdit"
activate
make new FTP browser window with properties {server:"theURL",
user:userName, password:thePassword}
end tell
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is what actually works to open a FTP browser window to your desired
location:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
tell application "BBEdit"
open location "ftp://username:[email protected]:21/";
end tell
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You can do the same thing using the command line tool:
bbedit 'ftp://username:[email protected]:21/'
