BTW, please don’t put a ‘do shell script’ inside a tell block like I did there; that's a cardinal AppleScript sin (careless pseudocoding, sorry). Better structure: #### set _sourceCode to "" set _formattedCode to "" tell application "Xcode" tell source document 1 set my _sourceCode to contents end tell end tell set _formattedCode to (do shell script somethingOrOther & _sourceCode) # operate on the _sourceCode here tell application "Xcode" tell source document 1 set contents to my _formattedCode end tell end tell #### Best Phil @sqwarqdev _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
