问题 How can I find which version of OSX is installed on my Mac by using AppleScript? I want to install an app programatically and run different pkg files based on the version. Thanks 回答1: I'm not on a Mac, so there may be a better way to do this, but the first approach that comes to mind is just executing a shell command to query the OS version. http://developer.apple.com/technotes/tn2002/tn2065.html#TNTAG2 http://developer.apple.com/DOCUMENTATION/Darwin/Reference/ManPages/man1/sw_vers.1.html

问题 I'm trying to create an app in Xcode using Applescript to convert PDF's. The problem is that I need Xcode/AppleScript to wait for each 'do shell script' command to finish processing before it starts the next. Is there a way of detecting that each script has finished? e.g. tell application "System Events" do shell script "/opt/local/bin/convert task1.tif output1.pdf" end tell tell application "System Events" do shell script "/opt/local/bin/convert task2.tif output2.pdf" end tell Thanks,

问题 I want to prompt the paths of the 10 recently added files of a directory (recursively) in Applescript as a list. This works fine in bash: SAVEIFS=$IFS IFS=$(echo -en "\n\b") array=(`find . -type f -print0 | xargs -0 ls -t | head -n 10`) echo "${array[*]}" IFS=$SAVEIFS I’d like to store the resulting array in an Applescript Variable: set l to (do shell script "______________") How can I put the bash part into a working 1-liner? Maybe there is also an Applescript-only solution? 回答1: When you

问题 I have created an Apple Automator service that receives PDFs encrypts them copies the encrypted PDF to a destination folder renames the encrypted PDF These are all commands from the Automator. However, the copying as an Automator command can only copy to a pre-defined folder.

问题 I am new to applescript and command line tools. I installed a command line tool to control the brightness of the iMac in Terminal. I installed the following: https://github.com/nriley/brightness After installing, I noticed a new exec file in /usr/local/bin/ called "brightness". The Internet told me, that applescript only knows the command lines found in /bin/sh. "brightness" is not found there, and I can't copy the exec file to this directory. So it makes sense, that I get the error "sh:

问题 I have an Applescript that receive an XML string formatted as parameter, and I would like to read/parse data.

问题 I would like to change settings in System Preferences without the user seeing things happen.
