the sleep script works nicely, but the logoff one fails - "shut down" and "sleep" are valid for Finder in an Applescript, but "log out" isn't. Another problem I have is that with [shell] I get an error dialogue saying "pd quit unexpectedly" when I use the examples in shell- help.pd - I guess it refers to the process triggered by [shell] ending, since pd continues on happily. When I try your patch the system sleeps before pd can quit, it quits just after the system wakes up. Adding "delay 5" to the start of the applescript doesn't help - it just adds a delay after wake up before pd quits, followed by the error dialogue. Trying to split off the shell process by; [& /Users/simon/sleep.app( | [ggee/shell] does not work, Console says the & isn't recognised (it's ok in Terminal) - pd quits, but sleep.app isn't run. I guess [shell] isn't using the same shell as Terminal, it probably needs a bash script or a .command file or something similar to get a process split off so that it can keep going and let pd quit first. I'm using autobuild: Pd-0.40.2-extended-2007-05-01 on OSX 10.4.8 and a G4 Powerbook simon _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
