Sorry, I forgot to mention that it was a third-party utility that had to be downloaded. However it doesn't really need any installation wizardry. By default, such shell commands are supposed to go into /usr/bin which is a protected folder that requires authorisation. However it will work perfectly if hidden in your app bundle provided you call it using it's complete path. If you put it into /usr/bin, you can use it with: get shell("cscreen") If it's in your bundle, (assuming it is in the same folder as all your stacks) you can use it like this: put "/Applications/MyAppName/Contents/MacOS/cscreen" into tShellCommand get shell(tShellCommand) These examples have no parameters and so just report the current resolution, but the link above includes examples of using parameters to change the res.
