Thanks. You're right of course, and thanks for the response. However, using such a method remotely won't work because you can't send the run command if the application isn't running already.

RuntimeError: Can't get terminology for application (aem.Application(url='eppc://user:p...@192.168.1.3/Preview')): Command failed: Application isn't running. (-600)

So I was hoping to figure out how to do that AppleScript line locally, and then try to do it remotely as well. The real AppleScript I wish to run in py-appscript is:

set remoteMachine to "eppc://user:p...@192.168.1.3"
set remoteFinder to application "Finder" of machine remoteMachine
using terms from application "Finder"
        tell remoteFinder
                open application file id "com.apple.Preview"
        end tell
end using terms from

But I figured I'd start easier and just try to launch a local app with Finder. Any ideas on how to do the original question (or even better the above) using py-appscript? Thanks a million.

Charlie
