For your situation, you shouldn't need to deal with the run loop directly. Normally you'd want to use a separate thread, NSOperation, etc., but since you're using AppleScript, that's out of the question since it's confined to the main thread. See the docs for NSApplication's -runModalSession: – that's probably your best bet. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
