Arguments?

ihaveabellybutton · Post by **ihaveabellybutton** » Thu Mar 17, 2005 4:21 am

I tried to submit one of my scripts but it said there was a problem with the arguments. Can someone tell me what the arguments are?

What do you mean arguments?

It might mean in your .scpt you have "on (insert subroutine name)(arg1, arg2)" with the space, or in your Info.plist you have the space of something…

I don't know…

Arguments are bits of data supplied to your script. For example,

/exec{uptime} has one argument, "uptime". Whereas,

/music has no arguments

Your "on substitute" function should be of the form

on substitute(param1, param2, ...)

up to howevermany parameters (arguments) you need.

No.

on substitute(param1,param2,…)

is the way you do it. (or at least that's how I do it)

Yes, no spaces

Yeah, it's confusing…

What's this about no spaces now? I'm confused.

When you compile, AppleScript puts spaces between arguments to handlers.

OOPS!

You are correct:

Code: Select all
on substitute(streeeet, citi, stat, zip, cunt)

Heres the script that got rejected. It worked before, but when I added Urbandictionary, it stopped working. Heres the message I got when I tried to upload it:

Reason: You forgot to add the Arguments in the .pinfo file, and therefore the scripts do not work. Please correct this and re-submit

Download the script

I took a lok at your script and that was the only reason that popped into my mind of why it wasn't working. The applescript was fine, I restarted Adium and re-installed it twice..So naturally the info.plist file was suspect. I took a quick glance (it was late, I'll admit) and didn't find anything wrong other than, there was no mention of Arguments. So I assumed that was the problem.

Also, your link to the file doesn't work. (times out)

EDIT: you can e-mail the file to me at reikonmusha@gmail.com or FT it over AIM to reikonmusha
