Thank you for your answer and sorry for my delay. mactypes.Alias and mactypes.File do what I need, as far as I tested. Is there any reason why the appscript docs aren't available online? The Homepage doesn't even mention that there's documentation included somewhere! BTW I found some minor flaws: * copyright notice is still 2004 * 03_quicktutorial.html: It would be nice if it would explain how to set TextEdit's document.text to unicode text - I didn't find a way. Later: AARRGH - it works from the shell (simply using unicode objects), but not from within PyCrust. So there's a dependency from Python's environment - can't tell which exactly. * in 06_classesandenums.html: app('Finder').home.get(type=k.file_url) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<input>", line 1, in ? File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.4/lib/ python2.4/site-packages/appscript-0.18.1-py2.4-macosx-10.3-fat.egg/ appscript/reference.py", line 391, in __call__ raise TypeError, 'Unknown keyword argument %r.' % name TypeError: Unknown keyword argument 'type'. (I get the Unknown keyword error for every keyword I tried. So it looks like an error on my side, but I've no clue what could be wrong.) * in 14_notes.html: """Dealing with problem applications Appscript provides a number of mechanisms for dealing with problematic applications. See the appscript website for more information.""" See the appscript website?? There's not too much information on anything... Greetlings from Lake Constance!
