I'm writing a bash script and I want to check if Growl is running, and, if it isn't, start it before I try and sent a notification with growlnotify. So I need something that can start Growl from the command line. I know about growlctl, but is there any other way I can do this? Someone suggested to try: "open -b com.Growl.GrowlHelperApp" from the command line, but that doesn't completely work to get Growl running, because if i do: (in system preferences) click the Stop Growl button, then "open -b com.Growl.GrowlHelperApp", then "growlnotify -m "test" ", it gives the "could not find local GrowlApplicationBridgePathway, falling back to NSDNC" error." But if I click Stop Growl, then click Start Growl, then do "growlnotify -m "test" ", it works fine. So it seems like doing "open -b com.Growl.GrowlHelperApp" doesn't start all the necessary processes to run Growl.
I'm using Growl 1.2, mac os 10.6.3. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Growl Discuss" group. To post to this group, send email to [email protected].
