Monitor AppleEvents an application sends and receives
Authored by: kerbaugh on May 02, '03 05:12:34PM
Wow! This is a fantastic hint! There's an app, UIElementInspector, that can help with GUI scripting. However, it doesn't show the Apple Event like your hint. There is however an unfortunate side effect. If you execute a command, alias or script that uses osascript, it will fail and more than 2000 lines will be dumped into your terminal window. Apparently the logging is written to the Terminal window but I have no idea what all that junk is. Any ideas? Still, I've written a script to toggle logging on and off quickly so this anomaly isn't a problem and this is a great hint, thanks!
