What is the way to launch an applet in background, for instance:
:> tell application “Finder Window assistant” to activate in background does not seem to work.
Thanks

You could try:
tell application “Finder Window assistant” to launch

Pretty good…! However, I found out that the applet launched but would not run. This however can be accomplished with:
tell application mylauncher to launch
ignoring application responses
tell application mylauncher to run
end ignoring
Thanks,

If all you want to do is launch an app (or open a document) in the background then use Akua’s “arouse”. e.g…
tell application “Finder” to arouse application file “my HD:my folder:myApp”

I doubt that I only speak for myself if I say that those who post answers to questions would appreciate feedback from the asker.
Even if the response is “Your suggestion was useless because…” that might be useful information for the “answerer”.
No response at all is not encouraging to those who like being helpful, and some might even think it impolite.
