NAME

Mac::AppleScript - Perl extension to execute applescript commands on OS X

SYNOPSIS

  use Mac::AppleScript qw(RunAppleScript);
  RunAppleScript(qq(tell application "Finder"\nactivate\nend tell))
    or die "Didn't work!";

DESCRIPTION

Simple interface to the OSA scripting stuff.

This is beta only--the code is very chatty when things fail, and no meaningful error message is returned to the program yet.

EXPORT

None by default.

Chunks of the code came from Apple Tech Notes, though that'll be cleaned out soon.
