In my experience, capturing the shutDownRequest on a Mac is not
reliable. For me it works most of the time, but then it gets me about 1
time out of ten. I've implemented the AppleEvent solution (thanks to Ken
Ray) and that has been 100% reliable.

Couldn't he just capture shutDownRequest?
on shutDownRequest
cleanUpStuff
end shutDownRequest
on cleanUpStuff
# do all your special quit things here
quit # actually quits when you're done saving or changing or whatever
end cleanUpStuff
or...
on cleanUpStuff
# do all your special quit things here
pass shutDownRequest # let's Rev handle the shutDownRequest and quit
as it normally would
end cleanUpStuff
Hi Peter,
I'm not sure about Problem 2 but regarding Problem 1, you need to
trap an AppleEvent in order for a standalone to perform some
activities before quitting. For example, put this script in your main
stack script and when theClass = "aevt" and theID = "quit", you can
successfully trap the program before it quits. eg.
on appleEvent theClass,theID
if theClass = "aevt" and theID = "quit" then
-- do something
quit
end if
end appleEvent
Best Regards,
Mike
