Dave,

There used to be an AppleScript dictionary for MetaCard. Revolution lost this somehow. It is possible to put it back. Adding the dictionary to the Revolution engine is discussed somewhere in the Use List archives. I wouldn't really recommend it if you don't explicitly state in the documentation that is distributed with your application that your application is scriptable. You can do pretty much everything with the do script statement.

You need to change the application referenced in the "tell" statement to the name of your standalone, if applicable. Otherwise, you can use the name "Revolution". Note however that running multiple copies of Revolution or your standalone may cause unexpected results while running your script. I think there is a workaround for this by referencing to a process, but I don't know how this works. (Maybe someone else knows?)

Best,

Mark

Hi,

I'm using RunRev 2.6.6.152 under the latest version of PowerPC Tiger and I can't open the dictoinary using Script Editor, and I can't seem to find anything about RunRev's AppleScripting capabilities in the docs. Do you know where I can find information on this?

One specific question:

Do I need to change to the application referenced in the "tell" statement depending on whether I am running under the IDE or as a Standalone?

Thanks a lot
All the Best
Dave
