rOr you could do one of these
---------------------- A ONE LINER
tell application "Adobe Photoshop CS3" to return (the number of
documents)
---------------------- A FEW LINER
tell application "Adobe Photoshop CS3"
set the docAsItemList to every document
--now we have a Applescript list of all the docs
set docItemCnt to the number of items in docAsItemList
return docItemCnt
end tell
---------------------- DEMO OF LOOP TYPES and LISTS
--simple repeat loop at the end to return data to Rev that is a bit
easier to parse
tell application "Adobe Photoshop CS3"
set the docsAsItemList to every document
--now we have a Applescript list of all the docs
set docItemCnt to the number of items in docsAsItemList
set nameslistViaWithEach to {}
repeat with thisDocItem in docsAsItemList
copy the name of thisDocItem to end of nameslistViaWithEach
end repeat
--or--------------
set namesListViaWithX to {}
repeat with x from 1 to number of items in the docsAsItemList
copy the name of item x of docsAsItemList to end of
namesListViaWithX
end repeat
end tell
set output to docItemCnt
repeat with echItm in docsAsItemList
set output to output & return & the name of echItm as string
end repeat
--of course this repeat could be done with either of the 3 lists we
have defined and gathered
--docsAsItemList, nameslistViaWithEach, namesListViaWithX
return output -- this is formatted without quotes except char 1 and
char -1

I'm trying to get a count of open photoshop image files. They do not
show up using terminal and lsof. Therefore I am undergoing an
exercise that always reinforces how much I like using Rev - using
applescript. :-P
The following result will tell me how many image files are open in
"Photoshop Elements 4.0"
My problem is that it looks for a set number of times (30) and then
tells me the count.
I would like to have it not perform the repeat with a set number (as
in 30) but to count until it knows that it got them all. IOW so it
quits repeating after a counter of N if there are N files open. Hope
I'm making sense here :-/
Any applescript Gurus out there?
set z to 0
set x to 0
repeat 30 times
tell application "Photoshop Elements 4.0"
set x to x + 1
if exists document x then set z to z + 1
set counter to z
end tell
end repeat
return counter
