Dear Jean-Louis

Indeed this took me over the first hurdle, I can now kickstart Firefox and 
Safari. They behave a bit differently, is there a way in OS X to explore the 
options you can use? In Windows there is the oleInfo script that enables you to 
explore the parameters and the methods you can use. How do I go along it in OS 
X?

I am a complete Newbie to Mac/OS X when it comes to programming, any help will 
be just great. I guess I will have to learn Unix at one point...

Hälsningar / Regards / Grüsse
