Where can I find basic information on the coalescing features of growl?
- What is/will be the first version to implement it?
- Is it/will it be supported though AppleScript to GrowlHelperApp

The code I have without coalescing works fine:
tell application "GrowlHelperApp" to notify title "theTitle" description "desc" application name "Rename Files" with name "Finished"
But trying to add the support gives me an "identifier can't go after this" error on compile:
tell application "GrowlHelperApp" to notify title "theTitle" description "desc" application name "Rename Files" with name "Finished" identifier "test1"
Does a bug need to be filed on Trac since the GrowlHelpApp dictionary does not seem to have been updated?

ingmarstein: How does one make coalescing work in GrowlHelperApp?
I have asked with the betas, and was never given an answer except its in there.
A bug is filed, but closed and said it is "in there".
My posted code still doesn't compile.
The dictionary doesn't show the command.
If the code is in there, please let me know how to enable it.
- Would a reinstall of X fix this?
- Do others see this command in the dictionary?

Look here: http://src.growl.info/growl/trunk/Bindi ... Growl.sdef
It contains this:
<parameter name="identifier" optional="yes" code="iden" type="text" description="The identifier of the notification for coalescing.">
<cocoa key="identifier"/>
</parameter>
This was added in svn revision 2552 to the trunk, and not to the .7x branch.
Here we have it in the trunk, revisions 2552:
http://trac.growl.info/trac/file/trunk/ ... Growl.sdef
Here we do not see it in the .7.2 tag, which was the .7x branch:
http://trac.growl.info/trac/file/tags/g ... Growl.sdef
There will not be another .7x release, you will need to wait for .8. Even though we released .7.2 after the change to the trunk, any release after the original .7 release were bug fixes.
You will see coalescing in AppleScript with .8. If you need this sooner, I would suggest looking into Cocoa or Carbon, both should have Coalescing support via the framework.

Nope, I will wait just fine. The coalescing support should appear in the first beta of .8 and will appear in the final release.
I was confused because earlier messages pointed to this change being part of .7.1 (which it was not). It was added to the trunk, before the latest release, but after that code split from the main trunk.
I'm still working on figuring out how code release cycles work. Thanks for the detective work in looking back though the subversion commits. :-)
