Terminal to the front no matter what
Is there a way to bring the terminal script to the front? I am running this script through OMCEdit which is then running it through Terminal. I have some dialog boxes (using osascript) and the dialog boxes are not coming to the front...Terminal bounces and I have to click on Terminal to see the dialog box. Is there a way to say send this to front no matter what?

Thanks.

I'm almost sure no one understood your question. What OS are you using. What do you mean "to the front"? You mention "click on Terminal" so that indicates you are using some sort of windowing system. Is it X11? Can you name the Window Manager? (KDE, Gnome, CDE, XFACE). What do you mean by "Terminal bounces"? What do you mean by "terminal script"? What is OMCEdit?
