pushmenu

AppleScript

The AppleScript interface to pushmenu currently consists of one command with one parameter:

sendmessage text : a text parameter passed to pushmenu

The message is pushed out to all active services.

Example (push.scpt):

on run {input}
    tell application "pushmenu"
	    sendmessage input
    end tell
end run

Terminal

The AppleScript interface can also be used to provide terminal access to pushmenu. You need to have the above script (push.scpt) compiled and saved.

Example:

Run in Terminal:

osascript /path/to/push.scpt "Hello World"

The script can be compiled with the AppleScript-Editor or also from Terminal

osacompile -e"on run {input}" -e"tell application \"pushmenu\"" -e"sendmessage input"  -e"end tell" -e"end run" -o push.scpt
