Hi Stewart,
yes, you have to pass an url. In the example the spaces are already
escaped, but somehow a space slipped in between the % and the 20. The
space made it think that these are 2 files and not one url...
here is what i get:
open "mailto:
[hidden email] test"
2007-08-03 14:24:31.263 open[3568] No such file:
/Users/karsten/mailto:
[hidden email] test
open "mailto:
[hidden email]%20test"
-> opens mail.app with a mail to: "
[hidden email] test"
If you want to escape a string I think you have to use URI encode: aString.
Kind Regards
Karsten
