I have spent the day trying to figure out why the following statement works in SuperCard but NOT Revolution. I want to communicate with SuperCard on a remote Mac named "Remote Mac". SuperCard is running on that Mac. I execute the following statement from Revolution on my local Mac:
send beep to program "Remote Mac:SuperCard" without reply
The result in Revolution is "no such program". If I run SuperCard on the SAME machine and execute this very same statement , the remote Mac beeps. If I issue the following statement from Revolution with SuperCard running on the local machine, I get a beep:
send beep to program "SuperCard" without reply
If I optionally add the name of the local machine to the Rev statement above, the result is once again, "no such program". If I send the beep command to Rev from SuperCard on the local machine, using the optional name of the local machine does not cause a problem and Rev beeps. Seems like Rev 2.1 has an error in parsing the computer name in the program address. Is this possible?
I have no problem sending the beep command TO Revolution on the local Mac FROM SuperCard on the Remote Mac.
When I issue the statement:
do "choose application" as AppleScript
... I get the expected dialog showing Remote Mac as one of the listed machines and SuperCard as one of the listed programs running on it. I have tried using the asterisk for the zone, "*:Remote Mac:SuperCard", but still results in "no such program".
This is sooooo basic, what am I missing?
