Hi Thierry,

Yes thanks, it looks like I was forgetting that the shell evals to a string. I fixed this and now I am not getting the error anymore but the command is still not executing.

I am getting the intro text that pops up when the iRed command application runs, you know, (ired Version 2.0 usage: ired -send etc.) which tells me I am communicating with it but not getting any result.

Any ideas???

Thanks again,

Tom

Hi  Thomas ,

You have to read the result of the shell() function.

get shell(...) or
put shell(...) into x

Can someone guide me in the correct use of the shell command on OSX.


I have tried to set the shellcommand to "/bin/ired" with no result.

This is my script:
ON mouseUp
    put field "myControl2" into tControl
    IF tControl is not "" THEN
        put the shellcommand into tShellPath
        set the shellcommand to "/bin/ired"
        shell (field "myControl2")
-- put quote & "ired - send " & quote & "Robosapien V2" & quote & " " & Quote & "D" & Quote into tred
        -- shell (tred)
        set the shellcommand to tShellPath
    ELSE
        revspeak "OH OH"
    END IF
END mouseUp
