AppleScript FAQ: Can you show an example of the AppleScript delay command (function)?
If your AppleScript is running too fast you can slow it down with the delay command, like this example:
display dialog 1 buttons {"OK"}
delay 3
display dialog 2
When you click OK after the first dialog, your AppleScript program goes to sleep for three seconds, then displays the second dialog.
Hopefully you'll have more practical uses for this AppleScript sleep/delay command my sample code. :)
