I'm new to Mac and am still learning AppleScript. I have some CS background but I'm trying to get ahead of a router issue.
I have a text file for some command lines to the router. I can successfully send the te4xt file (CT_Debug_Script.txt) to the serial port successfully to pull data that I'm logging. What I'd like to do is have CoolTerm do this automatically, say every 5 to to minutes.
I was a bit puzzled on the SendTextFile syntax, so I only have this so far:
- Code: Select all
tell apllication "CoolTerm"
SendTextFile(1, /Users/zyxeltest/Desktop/EX5510 Console Logs/CT_Debug_Script.txt) 1
end tell
I know this isn't right, I probably have to assign local variables to the window like you mentioned here, but I'm also wondering if I can create an empty if loop and set a delay for 300 seconds, for example, and then tell the script to terminate when I close the window.
I've had some experience with Terra Term scripting, but AppleScript is new ti me. Thanks for any help you can provide.
