I' I'm also considering extending the console in such as way as to make it easy to run Nu files from the console and even automatically whenever it is injected into certain apps. This is a low-lying priority after extending the console section, but I can see it being useful across multiple sessions. -Notice when apps are quit or launched. - ## Completed (or mostly so) I decided to avoid procmod problems by authenticating the nu-anywhere script to run as a substitute user whenever you inject Nu into an application. This means that you'll have to do it repeatedly, but I don't want to get mired down in procmod maintenance. Run an internet search for "F-Script procmod" and see how that went over. There's now a nice inspector bundled with the console. You can inspect objects fairly easily. Simply use the `inspect` command (see below). +NuSomewhere now updates whenever applications are launched or quit. + ## Using the `inspect` command What I loved about F-Script anywhere was the ability to graphically inspect objects. That made hacking away at something much easier than using `class-dump`. If you're building an input manager or other hack for an application (personally, I've added applescript support to several applications without ever looking at the source code using F-Script and `class-dump` and, now, NuSomewhere), this type of introspection is very handy. NuSomewhere provides the `inspect` command to provide a small GUI for seeing what an object can do. There are two flavors to `inspect` and a couple of caveats. @@ -45,4 +45,10 @@ There is a solution for this.
