"simple applescript event" seems to be a bit of an oxymoron, especially in the context of remote events! Personally, I would almost always choose an ssh solution over a remote Apple Event solution. It should be more secure and it generally just works. It is also useful for cases where a GUI isn't necessary; you can ssh in even when the user isn't logged in. But you know that, no doubt. -- Ned Deily, n...@acm.org _______________________________________________ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig
