1) I tried this from a script in OS X 10.1.3/ JS OSA 1.0.3: var itunes = MacOS.appBySignature("hook"); where both an OSX and OS9 version of the app exist,...
... I'll look into this. ... Yes, JSOSA currently uses MacOS APIs that don't support long file names. At some point I'll revise JSOSA to use the newer APIs. ...
... note that on OS X 10.1.3, this only works when the application is currently running. if not running, and where no classic app with that signature exists,...
... I've looked into this a little and the source of the problem that on MacOS X, the Finder does not respond to AppleEvents involving the process and ...

... It recently occurred to me that there was at least one situation where multiple "mappings" to one JSOSA datatype could be "parsed out" to an AEDesc...
... Based on this idea, I experimented with a slight variation. Whenever a value comes in from the outside (via an AppleEvent response), leave it in the...
... Right, this would give immediate access to the complete set of built-in AppleEvent coercions. I hadn't even thought about that. ... It would certainly...
I had some problems today working with the clipboard, (OS 9), and I wanted to share the functions I threw together for "slamming". This is Jon Pugh's "slam the...

Your samples should work fine on the Mac, too, if embedded in a browser page, but not as stand-alone OSA scripts. I'm new to JSOSA, but I think I can say why...
I just want to thank you for taking the time to analize and respond to my question. I'll have to think about all that you said and determine a best course of...
