Calls in Tool Executable..."):
Just to complete the answer, the correct way to display alert from a
background process is to use the CFUserNotification API.
Thanks, I wasn't even aware of that. I was thinking of using Growl if
my agent ever needed to speak with the user. After a few minutes of
reading, it appears that ...
Advantages of Growl:
Probably looks nicer
Configurable by user
Objective-C -- API looks easier to use
Advantages of CFUserNotification
No extra framework to package
Not configurable by user (Good if you don't want this)
No AppKit -- safe for use in daemons
Any other Growl vs. CFUserNotification considerations that one should
be aware of?
