This looks good. Unless someone objects before the end of the week, I'll
push it.

Thanks!

2015-12-14 Thread Mike McLean
Earlier in this thread, Rasmus suggested “Perhaps it should be a defcustom?”

With a new version (2016) of Microsoft Outlook for Mac that does not
install inside of a "Microsoft Office 2011" directory, this indeed should
be a defcustom.

This patch accomplishes that change. (It also changes the default to
/Applications/Microsoft Outlook.app which is the filesystem path of Outlook
2016.

 @Rasmus - I created the first version of Org Mac Outlook and at the time
 didn't have an active virtual running so didn't notice the difference.

 Add Microsoft Outlook Support to org-mac-link

 @Alan - It does make a different if you have Microsoft Outlook as a
 shortcut into a Windows virtual that has been exported/exposed to the Mac
 OS via something like the Parallels “Windows apps added to Launchpad”
 feature. “Microsoft Outlook” may try to launch the Windows Virtual
 “Microsoft Outlook.app” will force the OS X native version.

 I'd be happy to apply it. I have a question about it:

  The AppleScript commands may try to select the WinTel version of
 Microsoft
  Outlook. This—obviously—doesn’t work. By adding the Mac ~.app~ file
  extension, we reduce this confusion and more reliably call the Macintosh
  version of Outlook.

 I tried this AppleScript
 #+begin_src applescript
 tell application Mail.app
   activate
 end tell
 #+end_src

 and as I ran it it got normalized to
 #+begin_src applescript
 tell application Mail
   activate
 end tell
 #+end_src

 Does the .app suffix really make a difference?

 Best,

 Alan

If the user has:

- with Office for PC installed
- and configured to  expose WinTel applications to the Macintosh Finder

The AppleScript commands may try to select the WinTel version of Microsoft
Outlook. This—obviously—doesn’t work. By adding the Mac ~.app~ file
extension, we reduce this confusion and more reliably call the Macintosh
version of Outlook.
