The part that's tripping me up is launch System Preferences and then opening a certain pane. In Apple Script, I'd say:
*tell* application "System Preferences" activate *set* *the* current pane *to* pane id "com.foo.prefpane" *end* *tell* [[NSWorkspace sharedWorkspace] launchAppWithBundleIdentifier: @"com.apple.systempreferences" options:nil additionalEventParamDescriptor :??? launchIdentifier:nil]; I would like to pass in something like "set the current pane to pane id \"com.foo.prefpane\" to the event to tell System Preferences to change to my pane. Can anyone tell me how to pass that in? I tried through additionalEventParamDescriptor, but was unsuccessful. It launches System Preferences, but does not switch to my prefpane. (It works correctly if I run the Apple Script.)
