I tried the following in AppleScript Editor: set appList to "processes" tell application "System Events" set proCount to count of processes set appList to appList & "(" & proCount & "): " repeat with x from (1) to (proCount) set appName to name of process x set appList to appList & appName & ", " end repeat end tell log appList But the resulting list of apps has only a very rough resemblance to the list displayed by Command-Tab. So the following: NSString *source = @"tell application \"System Events\" to set frontmost of process 2 to true"; NSAppleScript *appleScript = [ [ NSAppleScript alloc ] initWithSource: source ]; NSDictionary *errorInfo; NSAppleEventDescriptor *aed = [ appleScript executeAndReturnError: &errorInfo ]; [ appleScript release ]; does work in that is activates some app, but process 2 is NOT the previous active app. Kind regards, Gerriet. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
