What's necessary is the "aete" resource that used to be shipped with MetaCard, but for some reason no longer ships with Revolution. All you need to do is copy/paste using ResFool, and you not only have "do script" and "eval", but you can use ResFool to make your application FULLY AppleScriptable... I'm doing this with a custom app I've built for my clients. In fact, you can: tell application "Epicure Dispatcher" -- an MC/Rev app play show "MyShow" without stopping end tell and it understands that "play show" translates to the appleEvent "EPICplay" which it then acts on. I'm planning on taking about how to AppleScript your app (including creating a simple Automator action for Rev apps) at Monterey in June, so if you happen to be going, you can take notes... :-) Ken Ray Sons of Thunder Software Web site: http://www.sonsothunder.com/ Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
