AppleScript little problem...

Hi !

I partially made my app scriptable. Let me explain : you can type the
"typein" command in script editor, but you can't add an argument.
I've seen numerous examples, but still no luck.

Here are the .scriptSuite, .scriptTerminology and the NSApplication
category i use.
Can you tell me if it's possible just to pass an argument so that the
user can use
tell application "MyApp" too typein "boo"

Any help is *very* appreciated :-)
Thanks in advance.
Nico
