Paste this into the (multi-line) message box and press enter:
answer file "Choose app" of type "APPL" if it="" then exit to top launch it
The chosen app should launch. (However, if it was running already, the result will be: "process is already open" - see below*.)
Quit the app. Now paste this into the message box and press enter:
answer file "Choose app" of type "APPL" if it="" then exit to top put it into ap answer file "Choose doc" of type "TEXT" if it="" then exit to top launch it with ap
According to the Transcript Dictionary, the app should launch and chosen doc should open in it. However, the result for me is "no such program".
I'm using Rev 2.1.2 on Mac OS X 10.2.8 (PowerBook G4 500MHz).
* In HyperCard the equivalent "open [<doc> with] <app>" command would bring app to the front even if it was already running, which was VERY useful. Is there a way to do this in Rev?
