I'm not a GUI scripting expert. (Actually, I'm the polar opposite — I don't use it.) But I just turned it on, and this script works for me, without any additional delays or hackery, when I invoke it from BBEdit's script menu, or the system-wide script menu. tell application "BBEdit" activate end tell tell application "System Events" tell process "BBEdit" click menu item "Open in Additional Window" of menu "View" of menu bar 1 end tell end tell > It was a nice idea, though.

I don't think there is currently a good way to hack this through AppleScript. I agree that it would be nice to have a first class way to do this from the scripting interface.
