Thank you for responding but unfortunately this does not help me.
Is this function (the ability to execute .command files) no longer a part of remote buddy?
If not can you tell me which version I have to downgrade to so that this great feature is again available to me.
I have a series of scripts that where very convenient that I cannot use without this feature for example I have a script that will call "open" sequentially on each other file in the folder so that I do not have to remember where in a series of episodes I am up to I just use the file browser and activate the script.
e.g.
#!/usr/bin/env bash
go=1
(( next = go + 1 ))
sed -i.rm_me -e "s/go=$go/go=$next/" "$0"
(sleep 1;rm -f "$0.rm_me") &
path=$(dirname "$0")
(( open_number = next + 1 ))
open=$(ls "$path" |head -n${open_number}|tail -n1)
echo "$path/$open"
echo "$(date) $path/$open" >> "$0"
open "$path/$open"
exit
this opens the next file in the same folder as the script and logs what was opened.
I use this script from a network mount from any machine.
I am not sure that it will be possible to do this with an apple script.
This script was very useful and I miss very much being able to use it from remote buddy. I have been using vnc to activate the script via the finder and using remote buddy a lot less because of the lack of this very nice feature.
Cheers
