And how would you

Look at the docs. AppleScript supports GUI scripting, which is a
layer above the accessibility APIs and some other

Right-click on it, control click on it, or regular-click on it and
hold the button down for a few seconds.

Maybe we should assume that the goal is to display it programmatically?
I've also wanted to do this and haven't found a way — in one

Short of simulating a mouse click on the appropriate spot, I don't
think this can be done. Finding what that spot is would also be
difficult; you *may* be able to use the accessibility APIs to
accomplish this, but that would, of course, require that the user had
enabled accessibility.
