Is it possible to build a script that would do this:
In camino.
At XX:XX:XX (time) go to www.something.com
and maybe add a press “tab” and then “enter”.
I have been messing a little with apple scripting, but it is SO far from the usual programming languages. -in a good way that is
But I don’t have the time to learn how this language works right now, so if one of you guys (or gals) could help me out, it would be great!
I don’t have much to offer, but I’ll throw in some good karma points and if you ever need to translate something from danish/english og english/danish please let me know
I know absolutely 0 about GUI scripting so I can only help you to a degree.
The way I would do this is set a cron job that fires off at the specified times and runs your final script. Now to get your url
loaded in Camino would be:
tell application "Camino"
launch
open url "http://www.google.com"
end tell
Now as for pushing buttons in there… no clue. Hopefully someone else can chime in.
Camino has a VERY limited dictionary, though it is possible to launch a URL. But to do it at a specific time requires either a) a Cron job as James suggested or b) an idle handler that checks the time and fires off when the time is the one specified.
Can you tell us what you’re wanting? If you want the Mac to open Camino to a website first thing in the morning, you can use the Energy Saver Preference to set a boot time and then setup a script as an application that will fire on login.
Basicly I wan’t to be able to “cheat” in a online game… -well, it isn’t really cheating, but I wan’t to do certain tasks in the middle of the night. This can be done by Camino (or any browser) visits a url at a certain time.
so I can only help you to a degree.
