I'm having a bit of a problem with a Python script I'm running. It sits in a loop and periodically asks "System Events" what's going on, via appscript. The use of appscript turns it into a "foreground process", in the terminology used in http://developer.apple.com/DOCUMENTATION/MacOSX/Conceptual/BPSystemStartup/Articles/BootProcess.html.
This means that when I try to logout, or reboot, the loginwindow sends it a kAEQuitApplication event, but it never replies, which means that after 45 seconds loginwindow automatically aborts the logout or shutdown. So, I either need to take that darn rocket out of the Dock (which I'd like to be able to do), or somehow catch and handle kAEQuitApplication events. Any advice?
