Not specifically a BBEdit question, but I know that there are people on
the list here that can clarify this for me; please excuse the post if
it's not acceptable.
Running a tcsh shell, I'm trying to set up an alias that will send an
orderly Quit command to the application that is the argument of the command.
I want it to work like this:
quit "Microsoft Word"
I've tried this:
alias quit 'osascript -e '\''tell application "System Events" to quit
application "\!*"'\'
…and this:
alias quit 'osascript -e '\''tell application "System Events" to quit
application process "\!*"'\'
But I get the error: syntax error: A identifier can’t go after this “"”.
(-2740)
Can someone please clarify. Thank you.
