Firefox/Mozilla/Netscape to Rev communication v. AppleScript?

[xbury.cs at clearstream.com]

Terry,

http://www.monsieurx.com/xos/stacks/xtras/xtraosa.sit

has some extra stacks that might help you out. If I remember correctly, 
there is a stack that
handles most events to and from NetScape, Eudora, FMP, and others. 

Part of the languages-plugins for XOS from 1998... MacOS versions but it 
might not have changed...

check out the stacks' scripts... I havent ported those yet to the RunRev 
environment as i no longuer use Macs...

cheers
Xavier
