I didn't realize the unsafety of NSAppleScript - so I have been quite lucky, because my usage of applescript in non-main threads haven't caused me any problems. ScriptingBridge seems not to be thread safe, too. Adding a track to the iTunes library using either applescript or SB will cause a block of the app if iTunes has dialog windows opened. The solution could be writing a command line application, wich does all the work you need, either using AS or SB. --Luca C. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
