[OS X TeX] Configure TeXshop to use ``ANT''?

[Claus Gerhardt]

Now I understand William's reply to my mail. Here is an Applescript  
which could serve as a temporary solution. I couldn't test the  
script, but any errors should be easy to correct.

(*The script creates a basename.ant file when a  basename.tex file is  
open in TS and runs the shell script ant which is supposed to be in ~/ 
Library/Flashmode/bin/ant, and opens the pdf file.  Needs Flashmode- 
downloadable.*)


--on ant()
tell application "TeXShop"
	get path of document of window 1
	set fileName to result
	--set saveName to the content of the selection of the front document
	--set saveName to saveName & ".tex"
end tell
set previewer to "TeXShop"


set scriptPath to (do shell script "dirname " & "~/Library/Flashmode/ 
Subroutines/ex")
set scriptPath to scriptPath & "/setnametsn.scpt"
set scriptName to POSIX file scriptPath as alias
set scriptLiB to (load script scriptName)
tell scriptLiB
	set {baseName, texName, pdfName, namePath, dirName, dirNameunquoted,  
logName, logPath, rtfName, docName} to setnametsn(fileName)
end tell

set antName to baseName & ".ant"
set fileName1 to dirNameunquoted & "/" & antName
set theFile to POSIX file fileName1
set theLine to 1 as number

set dialogSave to "File already exists. Do you want to overwrite it?"

try
	tell application "Finder"
		get file theFile
		set theAnswer to the button returned of (display dialog dialogSave  
buttons {"No", "Yes"} default button "No") as string
		if theAnswer is equal to "Yes" then
