To get the Growl notifications working, I had to add lines to register the
script with Growl as indicated on the support page for AppleScript on Growl's
website:
property blueutilPath : "/usr/local/bin/blueutil"
-- Check the current bluetooth status and turn it on if necessary.
if execBlueutil("") is "0" then
execBlueutil("1")
tell application "Growl"
set the allNotificationsList to ¬
{"Bluetooth Setting"}
set the enabledNotificationsList to ¬
{"Bluetooth Setting"}
register as application ¬
"AppleScript - Bluetooth" all notifications
allNotificationsList ¬
default notifications enabledNotificationsList
notify with name ¬
"Bluetooth Setting" title ¬
"Bluetooth On" description ¬
"Bluetooth has been enabled." application name
"AppleScript - Bluetooth" icon of file (path to me)
end tell
else
-- Set the bluetooth status to what it was before.
execBlueutil("0")
tell application "Growl"
set the allNotificationsList to ¬
{"Bluetooth Setting"}
set the enabledNotificationsList to ¬
{"Bluetooth Setting"}
notify with name ¬
"Bluetooth Setting" title ¬
"Bluetooth Off" description ¬
"Bluetooth has been disabled." application name
"AppleScript - Bluetooth" icon of file (path to me)
end tell
end if
on execBlueutil(command)
set res to do shell script blueutilPath & " power " & command
if res contains "Error" then
display dialog res
quit
end if
return res
end execBlueutil
