Appscript does implement a built-in launch command: app('textedit').launch() However, it doesn't work at all right, so don't bother trying it. The only way I can currently think of doing it is to use AS: import osax osax.runscript('launch app "TextEdit"') If anyone knows how to launch apps without them being sent the customary run event then please let me know. has -- http://freespace.virgin.net/hamish.sanderson/ _______________________________________________ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig
