From 706bd67e4cfa2242892ebdc8a06f8a44e9b9e006 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mike McLean Date: Tue, 9 Jun 2015 16:09:35 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] org-mac-link.el: Reduce Outlook App confusion MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit * org-mac-link.el (org-mac-outlook-message-open, org-as-get-selected-outlook-mail): Specify Microsoft Outlook.app non-ambiguously If the user has: - a virtual solution (Parallels, etc.) - with Office for PC installed - and configured to expose WinTel applications to the Macintosh Finder The AppleScript commands may try to select the WinTel version of "Microsoft Outlook". This—obviously—doesn’t work. By adding the Mac ~.app~ file extension and path, we reduce this confusion and more reliably call the Macintosh version of Outlook.
