Hi all,
Don't know if I was the only one to observe the bug described hereunder on 10.8.
Moreover the author of the "Growl New Message Notification" extension for
Thunderbird
confirmed to me that, before, registering and notifying to Growl was perfectly
working
simply by using growlnotify with an arbitrary name...
But now 10.9 has been released, a very close bug ticket has been opened
and I hope it will solve the whole thing on both OS versions.

Regards,

Hi,
I'm not sure of your question, but here follows more details than in my
previous post:
1. growlnotify is listed in Growl registered app
(and follows the default display and Default actions for me)
2. if you type in a Terminal the following command:
growlnotify -t MyTitle -m MyMessage
=> it works! (with the display style associated to growlnotify)
3. if you explicitly use the name of another registered application:
growlnotify -n Thunderbird -t MyTitle -m MyMessage
=> it works! (of course with the style associated to Thunderbird, not
growlnotify)
4. if you explicitly use a application name that is not in the registered app
in Growl:
growlnotify -n AnAppNameThatIsNotRegistered -t MyTitle -m MyMessage
(a) then there is no display at all on the screen
(b) BUT (and that's not logical) Growl history and Growl Roll-up contain it as
normally displayed...
It's easy to reproduce by yourself.
Don't know if the wrong thing is (a) or (b).
My preference would be that the display could be possible in (a)
since I discovered that some add-on use growlnotify with their names and are
therefore not visible:
growlnotify -n "AddOn" -t MyTitle -m MyMessage
Don't know if the purpose of growlnotify is to "simulate" a notification as if
sent by an already registered
application. But otherwise maybe it should/could accept to (automatically)
register new applications names
that are only using growlnotify to output their notifications...
Regards,
-Yann.

When you go to the applications tab it's not listed?

Hi,
I just discovered that the current release of the command growlnotify
(see http://growl.info/downloads ) has a "strange" behavior when using
a not registered name as application name.
For instance, when entering in Terminal:
growlnotify -a "Growl" -n "UnknownName" -t MyTitle -m MyMessage
1) no notification will be displayed (since UnknownName is not a registered
app in Growl)
2) buuuut, the notification is listed in the history tab of Growl, which
could make think
that it was normally displayed, and which is not really logical with the
previous point #1.
Are the two points above "normal", or would there be one of the two to be
modified?
Regards,
-Yann.
