Thank you Jacque and Jeanne, now I can get HyperCard button states.
... but really I was using the HyperCard only to test that my
applescript (or is it events?) was being sent from Revolution. I
want to get information from Eudora. For instance the following
Applescript works in the applescript editor, returning 97 (the number
of messages at the moment):
tell application "Eudora"
get the count of messages of mailbox "In"
end tell
However, this Transcript fails, returning only "Got error -1708 when
sending Apple event" in the result:
put "the count of messages of mailbox " & quote & "In" & quote into myReq
request myReq from application "Eudora"
put it & return & the result
I can successfully use the do field as applescript method in the Rev
1.1 alpha, and will. However, I would like to understand the request
command (and related) better.
