NAME
osaapplet -- Open Scripting Architecture (OSA) applet interpreter
SYNOPSIS
osaapplet path
DESCRIPTION
osaapplet provides the standard script application ``shell'' for an Open Scripting Architecture (OSA) script. It provides a menu bar and
optional splash dialog, and handles routing incoming Apple events to the script, notably the run and open events. It is normally used as the
interpreter for a script file, like this:
#!/usr/libexec/osaapplet
The script, which may be compiled script data, may either follow the interpreter line or be a separate file in the traditional bundle loca-
tion Resources/Scripts/main.scpt. osaapplet assumes that it is running inside a bundle; running it without a bundle may produce unexpected
results.
HISTORY
osaapplet was introduced in OS X 10.10.
