Sorry for the resend but I'm not sure if my first attempt went through (new to gmail)! Hi all, I'm getting lots of milage out of appscript, but ran into a snag that searches haven't resolved. Trying to gui script a remote machine, and appscript doesn't seem to be working. This: app(url='e

I can confirm the same test failures on the same platform. Configured like this: ./configure \ --prefix=${HOME}/opt \ BASECFLAGS="-arch x86_64 -arch i386" \ CFLAGS="-arch x86_64 -arch i386" \ LDFLAGS="-arch x86_64 -arch i3

I should have looked at the whole test output before my previous post; there are other test failures, or at least "unexpected output." The full output, up to the crash(?), is at this pastie: http://www.pastie.org/850452 The troublesome parts are excerpted in part below. -Tom test_asynchat te

Hi all, I'm getting lots of milage out of appscript, but ran into a snag that searches haven't resolved. Trying to gui script a remote machine, and appscript doesn't seem to be working. This: app(url='eppc://machine.local/System Events').processes() complains that terminology can't be found and
